520    "Filled with dry humor, sharp wit, and motherly care, 
       Karen Duffy offers timeless pearls of wisdom. When she was
       diagnosed with a life-threatening neurological disease, 
       she decided that to survive, she had to learn to laugh. In
       adulthood and motherhood, she has found that she has 
       earned more than her fair share of wisdom and wisecracks 
       to offer her teenage son. These are her stories, advice, 
       and insights that have helped her embrace all that her 
       whirlwind life has thrown her way"--|cProvided by 
       publisher.
