A Celebration of Life with Hope for Tomorrow in the Face of Pediatric Cancer

Provides valuable insight from Sue Mathews into a world that is foreign to most as she takes readers along on her journey with her daughter Taylor into the world of pediatric cancer treatments, pediatric oncologists, pediatric surgeons and hospital systems around the globe.

Serves in equal portions as an inspiring tale of the strength of love and determination and a cautionary tale of the state of pediatric oncology and the need for parents and all caregivers to be their own advocates.

Inspires and empowers readers, no matter what their circumstance, to embrace life and take control of their own destiny.

Guides readers through Taylor’s medical crisis and teaches dozens of tips and pointers, gleaned by trial and error, about navigating the maze of oncology through the lens of a lay person.

Reveals how Taylor and her family learned to balance the necessity of her continuous medical treatment with the need for her to be a kid and to live as normally as possible. Taylor taught even the most jaded oncologists that she was a kid with cancer rather than a “cancer kid”.

Tells a love story between mother and daughter, and as readers embark on the journey with Sue and Taylor from page one to page last, they will laugh, cry and learn to love a little deeper.

Emphasizes that Sue and Taylor’s love for one another transcends this earth into a deeper realm where they are connected today and forever and explores the “life beyond.”
