Paperback. Graham came home from Vietnam when a lot of good men did not. He never talked about that much. He just came home, put his head down, built a life, and tried every single day to be worthy of the one he had been given.He found Kelly. He built something real with her. Something quiet and steady and honest. The kind of love that does not make noise but fills every room anyway.And then one ordinary morning, without any warning at all, everything almost ended.It started the way every morning did. The dogs needed feeding. The coffee was on. The day felt completely normal. And then Graham's body turned against him and suddenly the man who had walked out of a war was fighting for his life in his own home, with the woman he loved standing between him and the worst thing she had ever imagined.This is that story.My Guardian Angel is not a dramatic love story. It is not full of sweeping gestures or cinematic moments. It is something much harder to find and much more valuable than that. It is the story of what love looks like when it has to be brave. When it has to stand in a hospital corridor at three in the morning and refuse to leave. When it has to hold someone's hand and mean it more than it has ever meant anything before.More than sixty percent of this story actually happened. The author is a Vietnam veteran who wrote his very first story at seventy nine years old because he had something true to say and could not let it stay silent. He did not write it for fame. He did not write it for money. He wrote it because some people deserve to be known for what they did on the worst day of someone else's life.There is no profanity in this book. No adult content. No artificial intelligence. Just one man's truth written down as carefully and as lovingly as he knew how.A celebrated Pulitzer Prize winning author who read this story before publication said it was written with no artifice and no performance. Only truth shaped carefully into story.When you finish this book you will want to call someone you love. You will want to say the thing you have been meaning to say. You will want to hold on a little tighter to the people who stand between you and the unthinkable every single day without you even knowing it.That is what this story does. That is what it was written to do.Read it in one sitting. It will stay with you for the rest of your life.Scroll up and start reading today. A Vietnam veteran wrote his first story at 79. It is about the morning his wife stood between him and death. Every word is true. Every feeling is real. This item is printed on demand.

Graham came home from Vietnam when a lot of good men did not. He never talked about that much. He just came home, put his head down, built a life, and tried every single day to be worthy of the one he had been given.
He found Kelly. He built something real with her. Something quiet and steady and honest. The kind of love that does not make noise but fills every room anyway.
And then one ordinary morning, without any warning at all, everything almost ended.
It started the way every morning did. The dogs needed feeding. The coffee was on. The day felt completely normal. And then Graham's body turned against him and suddenly the man who had walked out of a war was fighting for his life in his own home, with the woman he loved standing between him and the worst thing she had ever imagined.
This is that story.

Diritto legale di recesso
Hai il diritto di recedere dal presente contratto entro 14 giorni senza fornire alcuna motivazione.
Il periodo di recesso scade dopo 14 giorni dal giorno in cui tu o una terza parte, diversa dal vettore e da te indicata, acquisisce il possesso fisico dell'ultimo bene o dell'ultimo lotto o pezzo.
Per esercitare il diritto di recesso, compila e invia elettronicamente una dichiarazione esplicita sul nostro sito Web, alla voce “I miei acquisti” nella sezione “Mio account”. Ti comunicheremo senza indugio una conferma di ricezione di tale recesso su un supporto durevole (ad es. via e-mail).
Per rispettare il termine di recesso, è sufficiente inviare la comunicazione relativa all'esercizio del diritto di recesso prima della scadenza del periodo di recesso stesso.
Effetti del recesso
In caso di recesso dal presente contratto, ti rimborseremo tutti i pagamenti ricevuti, compresi i costi di spedizione (ad eccezione dei costi supplementari derivanti dalla tua eventuale scelta di un tipo di spedizione diverso dal tipo meno costoso di consegna standard da noi offerto).
Potremo effettuare una detrazione dal rimborso per la perdita di valore dei beni forniti, qualora tale perdita sia il risultato di una manipolazione non necessaria da parte tua.
Eseguiremo il rimborso senza indebito ritardo e non oltre 14 giorni dal giorno in cui saremo informati della tua decisione di recedere dal presente contratto.
Il rimborso sarà effettuato utilizzando lo stesso mezzo di pagamento da te usato per la transazione iniziale, salvo che tu non abbia espressamente concordato altrimenti; in ogni caso, non dovrai sostenere alcun costo quale conseguenza di tale rimborso.
