Summary of Rebecca Woolf's All of This

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The stoplights are out on Wilshire and all along San Vicente approaching Cedars-Sinai. I am driving with my hazards on so the cars behind me don't honk. Hal is sitting next to me, padded with pillows so the seatbelt doesn't press against his abdomen. I learned this trick after my C-section when our twin daughters were in the NICU after being born six weeks premature.
#2 I am driving with my hazards on because I learned this trick after my C-section when my twins were in the NICU after being born six weeks premature. #3 Hal is going to die. He's always dying. It was a running joke in our relationship, his preoccupation with his own mortality, and we couldn't help but laugh about it. The more we laughed, the more he thought we were laughing at him. So he started bringing it up even more often, like a teenager trying to prove how tough he is by bringing up topics that make him look vulnerable.
I know I'm going to die sometime soon, he said on the way home from the doctor's office. It was a Friday evening and I was driving. He was sitting in the passenger seat and our six-year-old son was in the back with his friend from school in case we got stuck in traffic. I feel fine, Hal continued. But I know I'm going to die soon. Like, within the next two years. Probably sooner than that. I squinted at the road ahead of me and said nothing.
We hadn't spoken about his stomach pain, what had initially tipped him off to the possibility of gallstones, so he had no idea that I knew something was wrong. #4 Hal was diagnosed with cancer six months after his wife gave birth to twins.
