As her husband of 28 years–we had some pretty intense times–In the last year of herlife she wrote of her experiences with cancer–I would recommend the book as the
insight it provides one with the disease and along with care taking is phenomenal--the book is available thru amonzon“Shards Of Light :Reflections on cancer“ by Anncornfield--She was a women and a woman she was-she will always be in my heart.
