This work is not just another story about triumph over the perpetual hurdles that life brings along with it, rather it is a fascinating journey of a warrior who chose not to pity herself on being told that she is suffering from carcinoma of the tongue, a kind of tongue cancer. Instead, she chooses to fight over flight. In describing her journey through this difficult moment, the author adopts a peculiar narrative style often intercepted with humorous remarks and heart-warming dialogue with the almighty whom she refers to as HIM, both styles abundantly indicating her resilient spirit and resoluteness to get her life back. The myriad of experiences she describes are each a heartrending account of gratitude and meanness, of delays and denials, of small joys and big struggles, of despair and hope, of faith and love, of angels and villains, of suffering and relief, of desperation and optimism, of complex relationships and simple emotions. Simply put, this book is a brilliant example of personal integrity and limitless endurance to get back, that which is yours – LIFE.
