Synopsis

Imagine if Morrie Schwartz of Tuesdays With Morrie had been a beautiful 30?something year?old woman-single, successful, smart and sassy-whose biggest problem was losing a few pounds before her weekend date, until she was diagnosed with a particularly aggressive form of lymphatic cancer. And imagine if she lived to chronicle her journey with a delicious wit and the wisdom that can only come from slow dancing with one's own mortality.Ruth Estrich was a 32 year-old junior executive at a Fortune 200 company in Chicago when life as she had known it ended forever. Letters To Dorian tells the story of her diagnosis, treatment and recovery, chronicling her passage from perceived immortality to mortality, from bad-hair days to no-hair days, from ignorant bliss to the bliss of awareness. It is a short book that is long on the lessons that are rarely available without devastating personal loss, yet once learned, create the possibility of a life of limitless and ongoing joy.
