WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLERGOLD MEDAL WINNER OF THE 2016 INDEPENDENT PUBLISHER BOOK AWARDS ("IPPY")Lene Fogelberg is dying-she is sure of it-but no doctor in Sweden, her home country, believes her. Love stories enfold her, with her husband, her two precious daughters, her enchanting surroundings, but the question she has carried in her heart since childhood-Will I die young?-is threatening all she holds dear, even her sanity. When her young family moves to the US, an answer, a diagnosis, is finally found: she is in the last stages of a fatal congenital heart disease. But is it too late?Unflinchingly honest and often harrowing, Beautiful Affliction is an inspiring account of growing up and living on the verge of death-and of the beauty, harshness, loneliness, and, ultimately, unbending love that can be found there.A young woman risks everything to save her own life in this "unusual, riveting medical drama crafted with deep emotion and exquisite detail" (BookPage).
