Acceptable Losses

A gripping novel dramatizing the truth that for every loss there can be a redeeming gain that enables us to go on living. Steve Irwin, a struggling playwright, is devoted to his actress wife Helen. Though her behavior is severely affected by alcoholism, the Irwins must accept the inevitable loss of her promising career. Accidentally shot by Helen, Steve overcomes a paralysis of body and spirit through the love and compassion of Anne Bousquet, a retired Nun who has returned to the world after losing faith in her vocation. Acceptable Losses is the inspiring story of three characters finding the courage and hope to cope with despair and make the future possible by overcoming the difficult challenges of the Broadway theater, the war in the Pacific, and doing "God's Work" at an isolated South American Mission where poverty, ignorance and disease are mortal enemies.
