You Can't Live on Bread at All

What happens when the staff of life tries to kill you? A memoir, a survival guide, and a surprisingly funny book about loss.

For the diagnosed, the suspicious, and the curious
Catholic and not
No shame, some jokes

You found us. Good.

Maybe you just got diagnosed. Maybe you think you might be. Maybe your kid did and you're panicking quietly. Maybe you're Catholic and Communion suddenly feels like a puzzle with missing pieces. Maybe you're not Catholic and you just want to understand why your friend won't eat the pasta salad. Either way: pull up a chair. We saved you a seat.

Grief and humor in the same hour. The Body of Christ and the body you live in. Learning to receive help, ask better questions, and build a table where people can actually eat.
