An inspirational true story of devotion, courage and determination in the face of great tragedy - a story that will touch your heart.
As seen on ABC TV's Australian Story
Sally Nielsen is a wedding planner, whose own wedding plans were turned upside down when her fiance suffered a catastrophic stroke, leaving him completely dependent on her and his family for all his needs. When others said she should put him in a home and get on with her life, Sally refused. Sam was the love of her life and she was going to stand by him regardless.
As Sally fought to bring back the man who was her world, she wrote in a series of diaries about her hopes, her anger and her frustration, but above all else her ever strengthening love for Sam. With searing honesty, Sally recorded the highs of each small step in Sam's recovery and the plummeting lows of her own depression and loneliness. These are those diaries.
Sammy, I Love You is an incredible story of devotion, courage and determination. But more importantly it is an inspiring love story that will make you value every precious moment with the ones you love.

This month I bring you stories of real people and their rich, varied and sometimes terrible experiences - people like media mogul Rupert Murdoch, Wiggle founder Anthony Field, adventurer Peter Allison and businessman and sex crime murder victim Herman Rockefeller.
But of all of the memoirs and biographies, the one with the broadest appeal is probably Sammy, I Love You. An inspirational weepfeast, Sally Nielsen puts down on paper her Australian Story which reverberated about the world when she found the key to bringing her 24 year old fiancé out of the coma for 60 minutes of communication every day. Sam Goddard remains largely in a coma after a sports injury a couple of years ago. Sally and Sam are still engaged.
