Author Chrissie Betlach Vinje Releases ‘What Now!’
(PRWEB) September 12, 2016 -- Author Chrissie Betlach Vinje gives readers a glimpse into what life was like after they were handed a fatal diagnosis of her husband’s glioblastoma brain tumor. “What Now!” (published by Balboa Press) chronicles their intense journey while illuminating their love story.
Everything was going perfectly until Tom Vinje’s illness struck out of nowhere. In this book, a wife lovingly remembers her husband and shares their story through a compilation of journal entries. She recounts their family’s journey into an extremely dark period, letting readers witness the triumphs and heartbreaks associated with an insidious disease that is brain cancer. She gives glimpses and outright dissertations of the grief, despair and pain of losing her husband at such a young age. She also let them feel the energy of camaraderie, love, faith and hope as people come together in support, empathy and compassion.
“I would like readers to finish with the book and have an understanding of what spouses, families and friends go through in a life-changing situation,” the author says. “If someone has been through similar situation, I hope they come away from the book knowing they are not alone, and that others share some of their experiences.”
“What Now!” imparts to readers a sense of hope – the hope that everything will work out as it was meant to, even if it was not in the plan and the hope that one can go through something as horrible and tragic as a loved one’s death and come out on the other side.
