Flori was an ordinary housewife with a loving husband and family and a quirky sense of humor, who always assumed her life would be as easy as operating a toaster. Boy, was she wrong When a cancer diagnosis turned her world upside down, and her husband lost his job, plunging them into poverty, she struggled to find her way back to the life she knew. In the process, she learned that laughter is more helpful than self-pity, that a crisis can bring a family together, that challenges can bring out an inner strength and courage that we never knew we had...and that sometimes, what seems like the end of the world is really just the beginning.
