Overview

Between Laughter and Loss by A.G. Riley is a story of love, courage, and the unbreakable bond between sisters. When Theresa, full of wit and fire, was diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer, she chose to live her final year out loud, surrounded by family, laughter, and the small joys that made life worth holding onto. Her younger sister, Annette, became her caretaker and constant companion, walking beside her through hospital rooms, quiet nights, and moments of light that shone even brighter against the darkness. This is not just a story of illness. It is a story of Sunday mornings filled with coffee and jokes, of spontaneous adventures, of faith, of family ties that only grew stronger in the face of goodbye. With honesty and heart, Riley captures the raw truth of watching someone you love fade, and the beauty of discovering how much life can be lived, even at the end. Between Laughter and Loss reminds us that love doesn't end with death, and that sometimes, the hardest year can also be the most meaningful.
