Excellent Movie Dealing With Loss

I met briefly Laurel Lee who wrote the best seller WALKING THROUGH THE FIRE. Great sense of humor, gracious, and humble. As an English teacher in college, she was know for rather unorthodox methods - I heard she once brought in a prostitute for her students to interview for a Biography/Memior class. She was an amazing woman who lost everything - joining as she put it - "The Four H Club - I lost my health, husband, home, and happiness". See the movie, but most of all, read the book (which fills in the details).
