The goldfish went on vacation by Patty Dunn

Subtitle: A memoir of loss (and learning to tell the truth about it) --- This was a very short and quick read.

As she looses her husband to this cancer she is also trying to help her son deal with the changes and loss of his dad. There are funny moments and sad moments. Moments of heartbreaking truth. We are all going to die and this book gave us a look at how some people deal with this loss.
