Book
Love Beyond Scope
by Andrea Richmond
Love Beyond Scope is my first memoir. My heart, my soul. For me, it is the beginning of my healing from the grief of a long and difficult road of living with two children diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia less than two years apart. It’s in some ways an unimaginable story. The pages of Love Beyond Scope take you on a journey with my family and me as we discover the defining forces of love that arrive on our path in the most beautiful ways. It’s a story of the search for love after hearing the words, your daughter has leukemia. My family and I witnessed it on our own unprecedented path navigating life with childhood cancer. It’s a life in which thousands of families are living each year. it’s one that makes you want to give up, or it brings you to the other side of love.
With Love Beyond,
Andrea
