When Marla Bronstein was first diagnosed with an Acoustic Neuroma, she, like many others, went straight to the internet. She found out what it was, treatment options, and read personal stories of resulting complications from long, frightening surgery. Marla wanted a map to help guide her through the months ahead of surgery that might show her a story with a happy ending. Marla wrote the book she wanted and needed so desperately to read. Marla"s story is written with the hope that others might also find their path in dealing with any life-threatening and life-changing situation.
