Late Fragments by Kate Gross
I was lent this book in Singapore, I've just finished it.
Quote
'Kate Gross worked at 10 Downing Street for two British Prime Ministers. At thirty four she was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer.
Now terminal it is clear that she'll die before her children finish primary school and probably before they reach the grand old age of six.'
Sadly Kate died on Christmas Day 2014 at 6.29am just minutes before her children woke and asked 'Is it morning?'
This book is well worth reading, it's not soppy or full of horrendous cancer detail, written for her children.
