Gillian Deacon was the paragon of virtue, the standard-bearer for how to live responsibly onthe Earth. So when the all-natural, vegetarian, yoga-practising, marathon-running mother ofthree young boys was diagnosed with breast cancer, the world stopped making sense. In an increasingly perilous environment, the promise of order amid chaos is so tantalizing.Every busy woman will recognize herself in Gill's strivingif we just get throughour to-do list of achievements and improvements, we can get our lives under control can't we? The illusion of perfection is a powerful motivator, propelling so many of uson a breakneck pace toward somewhere other than where we are right now. But asonly a brush with death can teach us, Gill learns the folly of believing we are in control.Readers will be inspired to appreciate the ragged imperfection of right now and learn tofind glimpses of gratitude in every moment of any day.
