Grace and Grit

Treya and Ken fall in love and got married. 10 days after, Treya diagnosed with breast cancer, until her death 5 years later

This movie is about death, really. It starts very cheesy, like they're amaze with each other extravagantly, really? Then it begins to move to an alternating hope and hopeless between all treatments procedure available

All deaths are affecting to us, even to anyone not close to us. I really believe this is relevant to us. Me, especially, just experiencing of my girlfriend ex husband passed away today. Even though we never talked, I feel the grief. Sometimes the imagination just took over with me to become in her position

Recognizing the difference of Treya's death and my girlfriend ex's death makes me realize death more. Because with my gf ex, as it was from stroke, the death come only weeks and he gave no word at all, as he could not speak anymore.

Such an extraordinary expression of the Mystery unfolding. The ripple effect of the love work in Grace and Grit has inspired great healing for my therapy clients wrestling and embracing grief, the unknown, and a change in perception from human to the orchestrated oneness we all are. Grace and Grit has the ability to open the viewers hearts so deeply with an ecstatic and renewed relationship to the divine.

This is a true masterpiece work a narrative expression in documentarian way of true love through sadness. Treya's Fate and Ken's faithfulness and love following till the end keeps you up and deeply inside the story not letting you for one moment out of your feelings and hope for Treya. I strongly recommend this true segment from life.

Brilliant and sensitive, Grace and Grit makes you feel like you were right there with Ken and Treya Wilber when they fell in love, got married, and then navigated their way through Treya's cancer diagnosis and treatments. This unfiltered account includes tenderness, passion, confusion, fatigue, humor, commitment, doubt, recommitment, and reconciliation. Through it, we see that even the most sophisticated intellectual understanding cannot shield the human spirit from the trauma of sickness and pain. Beautiful, poignant scenes show the inevitability of the integration of mind, and body and soul. Between the life and death seriousness, you'll find astute portrayals of a Texas oil family, woo woo healers, and physicians of the 1980s. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and in the end, you'll be transformed.

I thought this movie was such a wonderful love story. I had not ever heard of Ken Wilber before, but am very interested in the topic he has written about. I want to read The Spectrum of Consciousness and his other books (he's written more than 20). I think it was no mistake a free Showtime weekend landed me on this movie, to help me along my spiritual journey. I have not seen a good movie like this that makes me cry and remind me that it is possible to fine a love like no other. My Mom got treatment for throat cancer this year and it really touched me. My Mom did survive her Stage III cancer at 85 yrs old receiving radiation and chemos. This movie was a reminder life so previously and delicate.
