Showing results for "Not Alone" in Professionals & Academics

Hospice nurse Penny Terrell has walked alongside countless people in their final moments—holding hands, offering comfort, and witnessing scenes she could never explain. In Not Going Alone, Penny shares these stories—not as proof or persuasion, but as a collection of experiences too beautiful to forget. Told with compassion and humility, these stories offer comfort to the grieving, hope to the fearful, and wonder to the curious. They remind us that death may not always be an ending—it is a moment of connection that reaches beyond the veil.

In this heartfelt and often humorous memoir, the author shares her unconventional path through childhood, grief, creativity, and academic success—all shaped by a unique way of learning and seeing the world. From being Dux of Business College to earning a Master of Arts with Excellence, she reveals how “thinking differently” wasn’t a setback, but a quiet superpower that guided her healing, her teaching, and her creative life.
