Barbara Clark is a former nurse and mother of three children, two with special needs, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. This book tells the story of how she found her cancer, and what it was that gave her the will to battle on and take on, the disease and the authorities who were prepared to let her die for want of a drug.

Herceptin has treated Barbara's cancer, but it doesn't guarantee a complete cure - rather, it buys her more time to care for the people who are most precious to her, to help other women and to pursue what she calls her 'passion for life'. THE FIGHT OF MY LIFE is the story of an extraordinary woman and of great human courage in the face of despair.
