Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diana and Paul von Welanetz were a storybook couple. Their courtship was a transcontinental whirlwind. The enchantment of their first days together seemed to grow richer through twenty-five years of marriage. Regarded by friends as a perfect match, they were even named "One of L.A.'s Most Romantic Couples" by Los Angeles magazine. But one day, Paul was diagnosed with cancer. Diana was devastated. Soon afterward, in rapidly declining health, Paul told her, "I don't want you to be alone." She replied, "Then send me someone!" He responded, "I will." That promise is at the heart of the extraordinary story told in Send Me Someone. It is both a romantic love story and a credible account of communication with someone from "the other side": an engaging, real-life tale that proves that true love never really dies.
