Keith Richards is unhappy with his marriage and has broken his marriage vows to his wife Celine. Meanwhile Celine has been diagnosed with breast cancer. When she informs Keith of her diagnosis, he tells her he is still moving out. Thankfully Celine has a best friend to give her all the support she needs. You will really see just how despicable Keith is. But God protects and guides the downtrodden.
I really despised Keith and his overall attitude. Just imagine how you would feel if in this situation. Not only does Celine have to deal with her diagnosis, but she has to try and explain to their ten- year-old daughter why the father is not there. The wonderful part of BEST FRIENDS FOREVER is how Celine's best friend is there for her through it all. I had so many strong opinions on what I would do. When you have a child involved begging you to let the father come back home and you are weak from getting treatment that is stressful and is also a lot of pressure to be under.
BEST FRIENDS FOREVER is a wonderful story in showing what true friendship is and how a woman's faith can get her through the most devastating times. This best friend comes through in the most remarkable way proving that best friends are truly forever.
Book Summary
Things are falling apart in the Richardson household. Angry arguments between Celine and her husband, Keith, have become routine. She resents that he's working long hours and staying out all night, and he accuses her of not giving him the attention he deserves. Their marriage is at a cross-roads and Celine worries how her 10-year-old daughter, Kassie, will be affected.
But the situation turns devastating when Celine is diagnosed with breast cancer. As her relationship with Keith deteriorates, Celine worries that she'll be left to navigate the difficult process of cancer treatment alone. But comfort and support come in the form of Celine's best friend, Lauren. They've been attached at the hip since they were children and it is Lauren who's there for Celine in her darkest moments.
Now, Celine will be forced to make tough decisions-about her marriage and otherwise-and for the first time in her life, she wants to give up. Lauren vows to help by any means necessary and makes the kind of sacrifice only a best friend can. But will it be too late?
