We feel we can say with certainty that you’ll love our guest on this episode, Maryanne O’Hara. As a mother-daughter duo, we were gripped by her new book, which is a memoir of her daughter Caitlin’s life and death after having cystic fibrosis for 31 years. 

The book is called, 'Little Matches: A Memoir of Grief and Light'. In it, Maryanne navigates her own existence during and after an adulthood dedicated to Caitlin’s care, and chronicles what comes next when the worst finally happens.
