A guide for mothers who are dealing with an illness (not necessarily cancer)—the author had a life-threatening heart condition. Provides tips for coping—easy dinners to make, asking for help with carpools, things friends can bring to the hospital.

Part 1: Discusses the shock of the diagnosis, adjusting to the news, emotional aspects of illness, how to ask for help, adjusting your standards, dealing with doctors, waiting for tests

Part 2: Deals with how illness affects children, talking to kids, warning signs that illness is troubling children, conversations about death

Part 3: Discusses how illness affects relationships with fathers, grandmothers, girlfriends. Also talks about work and relationship (or not) with God

Part 4: How illness affects the future—things you can learn from illness and things you can teach the world.
