Summary, Etc. "Modern society has a warped sense of the partner-caregiver role, especially for men. Too often, men are ill equipped to handle switching from provider to caregiver, and the "just suck it up" advice so many offer up falls as flat as the Kansas prairie in the face of the reality of life and death. Ride or Die takes its audience through the intimate conversations and thoughts of a Gen-X latchkey-generation husband--a man who has always had to fend for himself and believed that it's up to him to solve his own problems--as and after his wife, Jane, succumbs to a terminal disease. Jarie Bolander wrote this raw, heartfelt tribute to Jane and her handling of her illness to help men and the people who love them through the experience of loss and grief. A frank chronicle of how an intimate relationship can change and grow--even when the people involved feel there is nothing left to give--Ride or Die offers a detailed exploration of the male experience of grief, in the hopes that others suffering through it will not feel so alone."-- from amazon.com.
