  Comedienne Marti Caine is fighting cancer, and at the age of 43 has been given twelve months to live. This is her diary, a humourous account of her life, and as well as examining her present feelings and fears she also looks back to her relationship with her mother, who eventually commited suicide, for which she lay the blame on Marti. The book tells of her escape from an orphanage, and her early marriage to a butcher, as well as her unusual route into showbusiness.
