Imagine her horror when lecturing in front of 400 passengers on the Sun Princess Cruise Ship her brain stopped functioning. She found herself unable to think or talk coherently. Within days she lost the use and strength of her right side. She was offloaded at Richards Bay in the heart of Zululand, South Africa 10,500 miles from home and rushed to the nearest hospital. Nothing prepared her husband for the unthinkable words spoken by the Emergency Department Doctor. "Your wife has a brain tumour and you will have to tell her"." The MRI showed that a massive tumour had invaded the left side of her brain and it appeared she only had months to live. Any attempt to fly her home would prove to be fatal. A stranger in a strange land, with the deadly cloud of Covid-19 looming on the horizon, this is a story of survival against the odds. As an incredible team of Doctors battle to save Maya's life, a way must be found to return her to her beloved Australia before the full fury of the Pandemic storm erupts.
