Overview
La historia real de Belén Domínguez: una novela basada en su vida en la que, a pesar de los malos momentos, siempre hay un rayo de luz para seguir adelante.
Belén es una chica normal con una vida normal. Vive en Madrid y disfruta de su trabajo, su pareja y sus amigas. Es verano, vienen las vacaciones y todo son planes y deseos por cumplir, hasta que un dolor en la espalda la lleva al médico. Parece una contractura, pero descubre que en realidad tiene un tumor en la médula. En un momento le cambia la vida y, con el mundo del revés, se dispone a enfrentar esta nueva situación de la mejor manera posible.
La palabra "cáncer" le resuena en la cabeza desde hace más de un año y, aunque es un momento difícil, lo vive con alegría y confianza, dispuesta a plantarle cara.
Porque la vida es bonita. Incluso así. Incluso ahora.
«Las flores, en el alféizar, me devuelven la sonrisa como si pudieran leer mis pensamientos. Agosto es para los valientes, pienso, y este año mi valentía tiene forma de crisantemos.»
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
This is Belén Domínguez’ true story: a novel based on her life, where despite tough times, there is always a ray of light to keep us moving forward.
Belén is an ordinary girl with an ordinary life. She lives in Madrid and enjoys her job, her partner, and her friends. It's summer, vacation is around the corner, and everyone is full of plans and dreams to fulfill—until a pain in her back sends her to the doctor. What seemed like a simple muscle strain turns out to be a tumor in her spinal cord. In an instant, her life changes, and with her world turned upside down, she prepares to face this new challenge in the best way possible.
The word "cancer" has been echoing in her head for over a year now, and although it's a difficult time, she approaches it with joy and self-confidence, ready to face it head-on.
Because life is beautiful. Even like this. Even now.
“The flowers on the windowsill bring a smile to my face as if they could read my thoughts. August is for the brave, I think, and this year, my courage takes the form of chrysanthemums.”
