If you’ve ever wanted to know what deep, profound, abiding, altruistic, passionate, inspirational love looks like – this is the episode for you.

Jason Rosenthal enjoyed a wonderful but quiet life. He was happy to have his extraordinary wife – Amy Krouse Rosenthal - the celebrated children’s book author, memoirist, filmmaker and all-round glorious human being, settle in the spotlight.

Then, on Valentine’s Day 2017, Amy penned a love letter to him, like no other.

“I have been married to the most extraordinary man for 26 years,” she wrote. “I was planning on another 26 years.”

But that wasn’t in the stars. At 51 years young, Amy was in the final stage of ovarian cancer.

The love letter-cum-dating profile to which I refer, ran as a New York Times Modern Love column, under the heart-stopping headline, “You May Want to Marry My Husband.” In it, Amy wanted to give Jason her public blessing to rebuild his life with their three children and find love again.
Ten days later, Amy died.

This is Jason's story...
