    “Book Descriptions: Liz Millanova has stage four cancer, a grown daughter who doesn’t speak to her, and obsessive memories of a relationship that tore her marriage apart. She thinks of herself as someone who’d rather die than sit through a support group, but now that she actually is going to die, she figures she might as well give it a go.

    Mercy’s Thriving Survivors is a hospital-sponsored group held in a presumably less depressing location: a Nordstrom’s employee training lounge. There, Liz hits it off with two other patients, and the three unlikely friends – Dave, a gay Vietnam vet, Rhonda, a devout, nice woman, and snarky Liz – decide to ditch the group and meet on their own. They call themselves The Oakland Mets, and their goal is to enjoy life while they can.

    In the odd intimacy they form, Liz learns to open up and get close. They joined forces to have a good time – but what they wind up doing is helping one another come to grips with dying and resolve the unfinished business in their lives.”
