Introduction
With starting honesty and immediacy, Newfoundland filmmaker Gerry Rogers began filming her ordeal with breast cancer the moment her hair started falling out from chemotherapy. You are with her at 4 in the morning when she expresses her deepest fears and her most intimate feelings; she takes you to her doctor appointments and family gatherings; you are in the chemo room as the toxic red liquid is pumped into her body; you are in the radiation chamber as she the most joyous Christmas party; you attend the pot-luck wig air-raiser, which she organizes in defiance of cancer; you laugh with her as she lies next to a bald-headed seal that rests on a local beach near her Carbonear home. You are there as Gerry lives life with her partner Peggy, who nurses, films, and loves her. When watching this film, you will experience it and you will never see the world quite the same way again.
