Synopsis

Gloria Hunniford's daughter, TV presenter Caron Keating, was 34 when she was diagnosed with breast cancer.  Initially she was declared in the clear but the cancer came back, despite her attempts to fight it off with every therapy going.  She died aged 41.  This is Gloria's account of Caron's life.  It is outstanding from the beginning, feels painfully truthful but is utterly absorbing.  It does make you cry - endlessly.  It is about the difficult bond between mothers and daughters and about what happens to a family when one of its members gets taken over by a disease.

Reviewer: Ingrid Bane

Gloria allowed us to share the intimate, intense & very special relationship she had with her daughter Caron from her birth right up until death. Although they didn't share as many years as Mother & Daughter as most people, it was the closeness and bonding that counted and many of us would long for a relationship with a parent to be that strong, however long. It was the most dignified death I have ever read about and a heart wrenching story of Caron's long fight to live.
