This true story is written by a mother who becomes the primary caregiver for her beloved forty-six-year-old daughter when she is diagnosed with a lethal form of cancer. Composed of a chronological narrative interspersed with pertinent e-mails, inner monologues, and medical data, the book follows the journey of the two women as they deal with the effects of the disease and its treatment. In its essence this is a story of perseverance, courage, faith, and love. It is a raw story, powerful and honest, allowing the reader to experience from the inside what the author calls "cancer world". Ultimately the narrative becomes a spiritual diary, as the author's reflections on her life and her daughter's evolve into a broader, more mystical understanding.
