Summary
Ruth and Ann met at a party, and it was hate at first sight, until a chance encounter in the bathroom led to an alliance of souls. For five years they shared everything, including truths about marriage, mortality and love,… but then Ruth was diagnosed with breast cancer. Ann, a former nurse, puts her own life on hold to help Ruth cope with the debilitating illness and face the approach of death. In the last poignant months, as they socialize with Ruth's friends and talk about their friendship, the sharing becomes even more profound. Strong language.
