Description

'A raw, honest rollercoaster that touches the heart' *****'Kate and her family's courageous battle is told with such candour' *****'Written from the heart with the will never to give up hope' *****........................ In March 2020, Kate Garraway's husband, Derek Draper, contracted Covid-19 and was placed in a medically-induced coma.

Thought to be the UK's longest-fighting Covid-19 patient, he spent more than a year in hospital before returning home to be with Kate and their children, Darcey and Billy.

However he continued to suffer the devastating after-effects of COVID and passed away at the start of January 2024. In this intimate book, Kate shares her deeply personal story.

As well as recounting how the illness took hold of their lives, she writes about coping with uncertainty, how she's supporting her children through this traumatic time, how she has found strength in community and how she strives to hold on to hope even at the darkest of times.

Covid-19 has affected everyone across the country in so many ways and Kate hopes that by revealing her own personal experience, it will give comfort to others.

By sharing the lessons she has learnt along the way, it will help us all begin to try to re-build our lives. Kate's exceptional courage, positivity and warmth shine through on every page, making The Power of Hope a truly inspiring read that will resonate with all of us whose lives continue to be touched by the virus.
