A moving novel about fate and love that appears at just the wrong or perhaps just the right moment. The diagnosis is a shock for Franka: brain tumor. What will happen to her, her studies, her life now? She is scheduled for surgery in three weeks.

Leon is funny, charming, and tender, and when she lies in his arms, only love matters, not fear. Franka decides not to tell Leon what is going on with her for the time being. And she rebels against her surroundings, which almost suffocate her with positive-optimistic advice. Because despite her worries about what will happen after the surgery, she really just wants one thing: to live her life...
