    Tears in my eyes watching this!
    The book is excellent - so well written, especially when dealing with such an incredibly difficult issue.

    I listen to a lot of audiobooks, and this audiobook stands out as one of the most memorable books I have listened to. Such humour & love, in such trying circumstances! You can be sure your book got my vote! :)

    A huge “Well Done!” to you Jessica!
    You so deserve this! :balloons::party:

    So pleased Jessica has got this recognition. It is a great book well written and easy (cognitively) to read although emotionally tough to find out what she experienced

    Having read Jessica's first book, it's so heartwarming to hear that she is no longer in the dire state she was then. I hope her improved health continues.
