pickWell this book gutted me. Fatima Ali, a fan favorite contestant on Top Chef was diagnosed with Ewing sarcoma, a fatal cancer at the height of her career. While her dream was to spend her final year traveling the world, dining in the finest eateries & experiencing culinary delights, she spent months suffering at Sloan Kettering battling her illness. In her final days she met with Tarania Morrell, a journalist to share her story. #NetGalley

Cinfhen Yeah @5feet.of.fury @KarenUK such a tragedy- the memoir is really moving! 2y
Kitta Oh I didn‘t know that about her, how sad. I‘ll have to check it out. I used to work at Sloan Kettering! 2y
Cinfhen Wow @Kitta that must have been a rewarding but difficult place of employment 💔 2y
Kitta @Cinfhen I work on the research side, it would be too heartbreaking to work with patients for me. Very rewarding though. 2y
Cinfhen @Kitta so rewarding!!! Thank you for all you do 💕💕💕 2y
Chelsea.Poole Tragic! I bet this is moving but I think I am going to pass on it, I don‘t think I can handle that right now. 2y
Cinfhen I absolutely would stay away @Chelsea.Poole it‘s just too sad 😞 and while reading about Fatima and her amazing mother & brother was rewarding there‘s no personal benefit for you to torture yourself. 💕 2y
Centique Oh man that‘s awful. My friends daughter died of Ewing‘s sarcoma. I just get chills when I hear the word. Maybe one day I will read this when I need to remember … and weep. 😢 2y
Cinfhen I think you might have mentioned that loss before @Centique it‘s awful 💔BTW: I saw your fantastic IG photos!!! Looks like you had a lovely getaway 💗💗💗How‘s your dad doing?? I miss his #bookreport(s) 2y
Centique @Cinfhen he‘s doing better thanks Cindy. He won‘t be reading again unfortunately but he‘s happy hanging out with the folks at the village now. He sleeps a lot but he also tells some great stories 😍💕 2y
Cinfhen I‘m really happy to know he‘s making friends and starting to feel like he belongs in the community ❣️I‘m sure they all love him and his stories 🥰 @Centique 2y
