Marguerite lives with her husband and two daughters as well as two very beautiful and very pampered cats. She has worked as an editor in children's publishing for over twenty years. <i>When I'm Gone</i> was inspired directly by her life and was written one sunny afternoon during the first Covid lock down in 2020. At the age of 38, when her girls were one and six, Marguerite was diagnosed with breast cancer. It was treated and life went on. However, two years later, she discovered that the cancer had spread and was now incurable. Marguerite lives with this disease and all the ups and downs it and the treatment of it bring, but she refuses to be defined by it or to let it take over her life. And although her diagnosis has forced her to face her own mortality rather sooner than she had anticipated, it has also given her a heightened appreciation of how wonderful life is and a desire to stay alive and live well for as long as possible. <i>When I'm Gone</i> is Marguerite's love letter to her daughters. She hopes that it will help them and others in similar situations.
