Tiffanie DeBartolo, thank you for writing God-Shaped Hole.
My greatest thanks to all who have been affected by cancer and have been brave enough to share their stories. Every single blog post, interview, and eulogy that I’ve read has come to shape this book.
Ian, my buster, thank you. I’ll eat you up—I love you so.
