No one expected Susie Dolling to be the one who stepped up. Positioned as the black sheep within the family, she spent much of her life carrying that role until her father's health declined and she became his caregiver. The Days Before You Went Away is a raw and tender caregiver memoir about complex family dynamics, anticipatory grief, denial, and the heartbreak of losing a parent. It explores the emotional reality of caring for a loved one, the strain and love within family relationships, and the unexpected healing that arose from loss.
