"We all hit a brick wall at some time in our lives."

Starr's rose up inside her body, a tumor lurking behind her chest wall and growing fast. With rare honesty and shine Starr recounts her early terror and ultimate triumph as she scaled that wall and danced her jig on top.

Her message reaches beyond cancer to anyone who has hit the wall and wants to turn a personal crisis into a spiritual odyssey.
"While I was sick, I learned to love me slow... The dance that was my life shifted from a high-speed twist to one of those slow dances we used to do in college - bodies draped around each other and feet shuffling softly. I went from being the show-off in the center of the dance floor to a contented voyeur, taking pleasure from watching the actions of others. I was as purposeful as ever, but my attention was focused on healing, and that required me to get quiet for perhaps the first time in my life."
