Beyond Breathing is not a book only for those who have experienced the loss of a loved one, but for all of us that are in need of a reality check. It teaches and reminds us of what is truly important in life. I cried, I laughed, and in the end I felt uplifted. I read this book in one day and I now keep it on my nightstand as a reminder each night and each morning of what life is all about.
★★★★★One word: Amazing.

This is a must read…This is a very quick read, yet it was one of the most inspiring books that I have ever read. It is great a great book for book clubs because there is so much to talk about. I have asked my book club to read it.
Beyond Breathing: The Book
Beyond Breathing is the award winning story of a mother’s loss of her 13 year old daughter, Jena, to
Cystic Fibrosis, a fatal genetic disease. The journey takes you from unfathomable heartache to love and understanding of life’s realities.
Through the pages, we understand that life lessons come from the children, beauty of living, and the power of love.
In the span of one year, Margarete learned to go from depression and dependency to inner strength and the realization that love never ends and that there are no coincidences. She now knows that sometimes the most important thing you can do is to just be there and that breathing isn’t always easy.
Margarete hopes to reach a place in her life where she is beyond just breathing.
