Angelo Merendino was devastated by his wife Jennifer’s breast cancer diagnosis. Just five months prior, they’d been celebrating their wedding with friends and family members in New York’s beautiful Central Park. Merendino chose to deal with his pain by documenting the process of Jennifer’s treatment, her heroic fight, and tragic death.
