Produktbeschreibung
Not only is this book an inspiring survival manual for cancer patients, but its humour and objectivity make it a choice read for anyone who enjoys real-life drama and pathos. Diagnosed with Mantle Cell Lymphoma in 2012 the author resorted to a blog to keep in touch with friends, and unwittingly ended up writing about the good, the bad and the ugly side of cancer, which attracted many followers. Is there a good? Very possibly. Bad and ugly, definitely. There is also an extremely funny side - wry observations that brought humour into an otherwise bleak landscape which included chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. The author is also blessed with a big following from the Mind, Body, Spirit community of which she is a part (including Judy Hall, Anita Moorjani, Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki); from this outpouring of expert support came advice on nutrition and alternative therapies which help to make this an invaluable source of information for cancer patients and their carers.

Autorenporträt
You could say that Margaret Cahill's life is basically wall-to-wall books. During the day she publishes MBS titles through her company The Wessex Astrologer, and at any other spare moment she's busy writing herself. She still keeps up the blog that formed the basis of Under Cover of Darkness, and periodically contributes articles on complementary care for cancer patients to relevant websites, including Bloodwise.org. She has also branched out into fiction. It Could Only Happen at Sea is about a slightly nutty woman with crazy hair who has been badly damaged by an emotionally abusive relationship. Caitlin has survived physically intact but her nerves are shot to pieces; her long-time friend Jules persuades her to go away on a last-minute cruise with James, their gay best friend, and as the holiday progresses we see Caitlin start to regain her some of her old confidence and self-esteem. Will the sea air and the lovely James work their magic on her? Available online or from a bookseller near you from November 2017. Margaret lives with her partner and three cats on the sunny south coast of England, just a short stroll from the insanely beautiful pine-fringed beach at Highcliffe, and Mr Selfridge's old house, Highcliffe Castle.
