This memoir explores a mother’s journey through grief and healing after the loss of her only child.

Psychotherapist Diane Esguerra shares her experience traveling to Peru to scatter her son Sacha’s ashes at Machu Picchu, a place he loved. Along the way, memories of Sacha’s struggles with addiction and abuse resurface, intertwined with encounters that deepen her Buddhist faith and connections with other bereaved individuals.

Through this physical and spiritual journey, Diane begins to rebuild her life with renewed meaning and acceptance. Thoughtful and poignant, this is a story of resiliencetransformation, and the enduring power of love.

Description

“Diane Esguerra’s eloquent writing and self-deprecating humour make this a surprisingly rewarding and uplifting read. The journey is a courageous one; so too is her willingness to share raw emotion with her reader and her determination to create both meaning and value out of some truly heart-breaking life experiences.” – Therapy Today
