Excerpt:
Tears
leaked from the corners of Marianne’s eyes. She brushed them away
with the back of her hand and stared out the front windshield of her
car.
One
sentence kept playing through her head. “We found an area on your
left breast that might be a problem.”
Her
doctor described other tests she’d have to take, which might also
include a biopsy and possibly even surgery. With
twenty-five-plus-years as an executive’s wife, she’d pushed aside
her emotional response and had dealt with the problem logically.
She’d
departed her doctor’s office in a blind stupor, reviewing every
possible solution. Once she reached her car, she sat there for a few
moments, her mind naturally turning to how to tell her family. Then,
she recalled her decision to spend tonight with Knox and to go away
with him for the weekend.
Pain
sliced through her.
What
should she say to him? Especially after the pain, he’d endured from
losing Betty, his first wife to...
Damn.
Conversations
she’d had with Knox when Betty was undergoing her intense
chemotherapy ran through Marianne’s head. He’d appeared so
strong. Yet, he’d sacrificed everything and sold his company so
he’d have more time to spend with his wife.
Why
give up everything if he hadn’t believed she’d recover?

Even the Threat of Cancer can cause stress. The days before a doctor gets the results of the test can seem like forever.
When I was in my teens, my mother found a lump in her breasts. The only way for them to tell if it was cancerous was to do a biopsy. Back in those days, a woman had to check into a hospital to have a biopsy done.
The days before the biopsy, I remember believing that those may be the last days of my time with her. We grew very close during that time and remained close afterward.
When I decided to write CEO’s Widow, I remember the pain I suffered and tried to add that to the story. This book does not go into the technical aspects of the treatment. Instead, it is about the emotional pain the cancer causes.
