Faced with a life-threatening illness, Patricia's life as a first-time mother, corporate paralegal, and office manager comes to a halt. Recovery takes her back to writing, and 17 years following her diagnosis, she publishes her memoir about her incredible journey.
Born fourth to Italian immigrants, Patricia is attracted to memoirs that reveal truths about the challenges faced by all human beings, and the ingenuity people show in confronting them. She spends her days visiting family and friends, and cooking and eating delicious meals with her husband and daughter – activities she no longer takes for granted. A lifelong, passionate chronicler, she also makes time for writing. She is a member of the Quebec Writers’ Federation, and lives in Montreal, Canada.
