PositiveBookreporter...a story about life and death that’s informative, moving and wise ... The story of how Margaret secured the doctor who performed both of her brain surgeries and managed her treatment almost defies belief ... When it comes to charting his own difficult emotional journey as Margaret’s caregiver, Michael doesn’t hold back ... Korda likewise spares no details of Margaret’s last days, revealing how painfully hard dying can be even when his wife, in hospice care by this time, had the benefit of attentive caregivers ... For all his candor in describing Margaret’s rapid decline, there’s a certain British reserve in the information Michael parcels out in the book’s few glimpses of their pre-cancer lives ... Passing is a sad story, but it’s also a knowing and tender tribute to the love that endures after a long and devoted relationship has reached its inevitable end.
