The Life That Sits Beside You

In a Brooklyn hospital, in 1954, five babies, four girls and one boy, were born on the same day. In Sweden, on that day, another baby girl was also born. This is the story of how these individual's lives eventually intersect, and how they not only become acquainted with one another, but become lifelong friends. All of these individual lives are viewed through the lens of Adina Claudette Saville, whose dreams are unlike the others. Amelia, Anna, Alice and Astrid, together with Adina form an alliance of cherished friendships. They offer steadfast support throughout their adolescence and into their adult lives, as each woman embarks on a different life path to happiness and fulfillment. However, there is one journey Adina must take, and she decides not to allow these friends any knowledge of her predicament. Some journeys that challenge one's fortitude, must be traveled alone. The Life That Sits Beside You is an uncommon story of a woman and her unique devotion to the man she loves, to her family, and to the lifelong friends, she holds dear to her heart.
