When Manon Rinsma was twelve, she sat at her computer starting what she hoped to be a book. That same day, her mother passed away. Over a decade later, she finally found the words.

This collection of short essays traces the road leading up to that loss: the slow realization, the questions children are often scared to ask out loud, and the way time stretches and collapses when someone you love is fading. Manon hopes others facing similar loss will feel less alone, won't miss out on valuable time, and will better understand a child's perspective when a parent is slipping away.
