Jayne Doxtater was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba, and now resides in the beautiful West Kootenay region of British Columbia, Canada. After a fulfilling 40-year career as a business owner and esthetician, she is now semi-retired and embraces a life close to nature.
"I wrote this book as a method of healing, not only for myself but also for others who have experienced different kinds of loss. This story isn’t something I’ve often seen nor heard: the journey alongside a person who is transitioning, from the point of view of the family, or in my case, the partner. My intention was to honestly recount my experiences, and tell my story from a place of love."
A devoted nana to twin granddaughters and a grand puppy, Jayne finds joy in the simple pleasures—reading, forest walks, and yes, chocolate. A self-proclaimed tree hugger, she feels most at peace surrounded by the outdoors.
