Joining us now is author of Are youe With Me, Corey Richens.

To-infinitive

And Corey, I want to start with your story, what happened in your personal life.

So my husband passed away unexpectedly last year.

We have three little boys, 10, nine, and six.

How did you go from processing death to I need to write a book and help others?

You know, I just watched the struggle that my kids were going through and trying to find something that we could use to cope at nights.

Nights are the hardest, it seems like, for everybody when, you know, dealing with anything.

But I just wanted some story to read to my kids.

I was reading and I remember I just was in tears.

And I thought, like, this is perfect for your family.

And so I was just baffled at how she even had the time to do that.

And it's, you know, explaining to my kids, just because he's not present here with us, that doesn't mean his presence isn't here with us.

And he's doing these things with us years at home.

What they saw in that interview was this bereaved young woman who tragically lost her husband.

But this would be just the beginning of the story.

And boy, was there a lot more coming their way.

911, what's the address of the emergency?

It's a little after three in the morning and Corey Richards calls 91 1, saying her husband Eric is not breathing and is cold to the touch.

Paramedics and firefighters are already there when they arrive.

In those first few moments of the police body worn camera, you are watching this life or death moment unfold.

Law enforcement is trying to make sense of it all.

Inside the bedroom, you can see law enforcement trying to help Eric Richards.

And they're using a CPR machine so you can hear this sort of rhythmic sound.

We had a drink together at nine to celebrate something at work hours earlier.

They were celebrating a big financial win for her real estate business.

She mentions they've had a cocktail before bed.

She mentions that her son has night terrors and that she'd been asleep with him.

When I sleep with my kids, I'll just wake up and I go back in my own bed.

Two are awake with their air to the door.

At one point, the, you know, officer asked if she would like to call anybody and she mentioned she wants to call her mom.

Does he have any medical conditions or anything like that?

Lyme's disease, I mean, but I mean, nothing major.

So they're asking questions like, does he have any, you know, health ailments?

So no heart problems or anything like that?

So while she's talking to the officer, she says that sometimes he takes a gummy to sleep.

But she also tells him she's not sure whether he took one that night.
