Covered from the waist down by a baby-blue paper sheet with feet up in stirrups, it is hard to feel in charge. So begins The Ovarian Chronicles, a memoir that holds the mirror up for women and the hard choices they often face between the competing longing of their bodies, their expectations, and their partners competing needs. In this raw, honest account, Cat Williford shares her rich story of how a potential cancer diagnosis helped strip off her protective masks and place her at a vulnerable crossroads: Will she respond by following the Western medicine of her surgeon father, or the alternative medicine and feminine spirituality that she has come to rely upon? Will she tend her own dreams or the circumstances of the men in her life? Cat's riveting journey reveals the complexities of women's choices. She provides a loving pathway to grow into our powerful feminine psyches, as we listen to the deep wisdom of our bodies and take a stand for the dreams we hold sacred.
