About The Author

Dr. Tali Lando Aronoff is a full-time pediatric otolaryngology (ENT) surgeon with a busy practice split between her offices and the operating room. She is also a mother of three young girls, enthusiastic scuba diver and breast cancer survivor. Though a physician by training, she is a compelling writer who started composing poetry and story-writing at the age of 7.

At the time she began this book, she was juggling the realities of a newly discharged preemie, her beloved father’s brain cancer and her own advanced cancer diagnosis. Tali grew up in Allentown, Pennsylvania. After a decade living in New York City, she now resides in Westchester, NY with husband and children. Her dual perspective as a patient and a doctor is fascinating and enlightening.
