Life would be much simpler if we were all born with a book that told us how to live, a book that answered all our questions and gave us support when we needed it. But in the end, we must all write this book for ourselves and find our true path in life. With wit and compassion, Bernie answers the question that are most often asked, discusses handling the fear of recurrent illness, asking for help, dealing with anger and pain, becoming open, confronting destructive images of ourselves, understanding the gift of hope and unconditional love and - learning how to live.
