Grace and Grit

Read this book years ago. Big Ken Wilber fan! This movie is Outstanding, beyond words. Read the book first or you'll miss the rich subtleties. S. Willis, Dayton OH.

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.

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.

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.

This is a powerful true story that stays true to the source material. It's a beautiful and inspiring movie about romantic, courageous and selfless love.
