Summary

For Kate Greene, nothing was as important as the happiness and well-being of her two little boys, Reef and Finn, and her loving husband St. John, known as "Singe." They had a wonderfully happy life in Somerset, England - until Kate was diagnosed with incurable breast cancer. During her last few days, with Singe's help, Kate created what she called Mum's List to help the man she loved create the best life for their sons after she was gone. Her instructions were simple, but their effects were truly profound
