This book was amaizingly inspirational. The comic book style read, follows the author through her real life diagnosis with cancer and her will and desire to survive through her journey. Marchetto will make you laugh, cry, and gasp with her vivid descriptions and tell-it-how-it-is attitude. I purchased multiple copies and give them as gifts to the newly diagnosed, and local libraries.
