Inhaltsangabe

<p>In 2008, just as Laura Ropp&#233; was poised to burst onto the music scene, her doctor called her with news that left her spinning&#8212;she had been diagnosed with an extremely aggressive form of breast cancer. Just days earlier, she had signed a dream-come-true contract with a record label; now, she wasn&#8217;t even sure how much longer she had to live. Never one to back down to a challenge, however, Ropp&#233; gathered her courage, took stock of her priorities, and made a decision: <i>Cancer may take my hair,</i> she told herself, <i>but that&#8217;s all it&#8217;s getting.</i></p><p>More than a cancer journey, <i>Rocking the Pink</i> is a quirky, charming, and poignant ode to love, friendship, and music. Ropp&#233; is unflinchingly honest and unfailingly funny as she tells the story of her odyssey: from childhood dreamer and giddy valet parker to the Hollywood stars to disillusioned lawyer, wife, and mother; from budding songwriter and late-blooming recording artist to determined cancer survivor. Full of raw emotion and humor that will make you laugh through your tears, <i>Rocking the Pink</i> is a chronicle of discovering one's true self through life&#8217;s difficult circumstances&#8212;and a testament to the hang-in-tough, take-no-prisoners attitude it takes to kick cancer&#8217;s butt.</p>
