About this listen
In 1960s Bristol, a family is overshadowed by tragedy.
While Susan, a typically feisty seven-year-old, is busy being brave, her mother, Eddress, is struggling for courage. Though bound by an indestructible love, their journey through a world that is darkening with tragedy is fraught with the kind of misunderstandings that bring as much laughter as pain, and as many dreams as nightmares. How does a child cope when faced with a wall of adult secrets? What does a mother do when her biggest fear starts to become a reality? Because it's the sixties, and because it's shameful to own up to feelings, Eddress tries to deny the truth, while Susan creates a world that will never allow her mother to leave.
Set in a world where a fridge is a luxury, cars have starting handles, and where bingo and coupons bring in the little extras, Just One More Day is a deeply moving true-life account, told by mother and daughter, of how the spectre of death moved into their family, and how hard they tried to pretend it wasn't there.

Sweet and touching.
Autobiographical book of Susan Lewis’s childhood in the early 60’s from 7yrs to 9 yrs. just getting on with her life as children do through the heavy cloud of her mum’s worsening breast cancer. Lots of topical references. Top of the Pops, Dr Who, World Cup etc. Told from Susan’s view and her mum Eddress. Very sad.
