Description: In 1993 Liz Tilberis was a working mother with a family who adored her. The editor-in-chief of Harper's Bazaar, she lived atop the glamorous world of international fashion and was recognized as one of the most powerful people in the industry. She was also diagnosed with Stage III ovarian cancer, and faced with the challenge of a lifetime. Joining the ranks of the 175,000 women in America with ovarian cancer, she underwent major surgery, grueling chemotherapy, and, when the cancer eventually recurred, a life-threatening bone marrow transplant. Refusing to let the disease get the better of her, she continues to participate fully in her life as a wife, mother, and career woman. Educating herself about the disease that threatened her life, Tilberis concluded that she developed ovarian cancer as a result of infertility treatments she underwent years earlier -- a link that the medical establishment has been reluctant to acknowledge. The experience led Tilberis to become president of Ovarian Cancer Research Fund and addressed countless issues surrounding the devastating disease. This truly inspiring memoir captures the essence and determination of a remarkable woman -- and cancer survivor.
