From the Back Cover

"Worry lines cut deep canyons in my face as we huddle together.  Body, brain, and spirit torn apart with grief, we wait, silent and scared, knowing this is our last hope.  The drug creeps into mom's arm, mixes with her blood, and begins its agonizingly slow ascent to her brain."
