Summary:
"During
Will
Betke-Brunswick
's sophomore year of college, their beloved mother, Elizabeth, is diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. They only have ten more months together, which
Will
documents in evocative two-color illustrations. But as we follow
Will
and their mom through chemo and hospital visits, their time together is buoyed by laughter, jigsaw puzzles, modern art, and vegan BLTs. In a delightful twist,

Will
Betke-Brunswick
. At its heart,
Will
's story is a celebration of a mother-child relationship filled with unconditional devotion, humor, care, and openness"--From publisher.
