Dan and Carmen are young, healthy, wealthy and full of energy. They love each other and their one-year-old daughter Luna. But their beautiful, rich, brilliant life collapses overnight. Carmen is terminally ill. She has been given a final diagnosis. Noisy parties and bars gave way to treatment rooms, hospital wards and medical consultations... The Dutchman Ray Kloun in his debut “While We Are Around” is infinitely sincere and biased - in 2001, his wife died of breast cancer... In memory of her, he wrote this book.
