AS LOVE IS DEEP

Again an ordeal experienced, endured, and ultimately reconciled records the ""diary of a death"", the death of her mother from cancer- and the ""journey"" of her ""faith as it faded and died"" and then was regained. Betsey Barton's relationship with her mother was a particularly close and dependent one, probably accentuated by her disability, and these fragmentary notations reflect her own questioning despair as well as her mother's unfailing courage through the eighteen months' of her illness, her gradual withdrawal, and death. It is a highly personal illumination of the many dimensions of suffering- which will also have its inspirational value for others- on a far more restricted basis than Lael Tucker Wertenbaker's Death of a Man.
