A Place in My Mind

Art Marsicano shares the inspiring story of his wife's five-year battle with ovarian cancer in this tribute to God, marriage, and the power of love.

In Jean's final years, she smiled more than she cried and reached out to help others when she was the one in trouble. While cancer may have destroyed her body, it did not destroy her mind, soul or her essence.

But as cancer took its toll, Art was forced to think about a life of living alone. One day, a verse of poetry fixed itself into his mind:

there's a place in my mind that so clearly I see
and when I go there I think of thee
there are mountains and rivers and the wind blows free
yet I feel great sorrow, for there is only me

When Jean died, Art found comfort by relying on God's strength and thinking about the sunny days of the past, including four women that he wanted to reconnect with-discovering that two of them had died.

But one of the women, Mary, would find him by sending a condolence card in the mail. Soon, Art would discover that his life could still have magic and love.
