Synopsis:

Sheer survival takes center stage, within this amazing story of a breast cancer survivor. TILL I GROW involves ways in which the reader, will garner strength in overcoming hurdles by the use of exuberant tenacity.

Till I Grow, describes the uncanny measures Rayshawn took, while holding her life-saving arm around her three children, and using the other in the battle of a lifetime!

Humorous moments are highlighted, in remembrance of years passed, through the eyes of the author. What quickened this woman to continue without wavering? The answer lay, in allowing the process of forgiving past hurts, living, loving, and laughing out loud!

"If I can survive such a life-altering experience, as a single mom with three children, others can breakthrough uncertainties as well," says McAuley. She continues, "Everyone has something to live for,  this alone carries the strength that will eventually heal you. I'm grateful for the experiences I went through, coming out the other side more appreciative, more loving and truly aware of life's fragility. I hope to instill these values in others."

With launch hype growing, McAuley has recently announced that she has developed a stage play to act a prequel to her book. "It's called 'Sweet O'l Mama' and tells my story of survival, with mounds of drama, hilarity, and electrifying inspirational hymns! It's more about raising the profile of the disease than about me. As a survivor, I want to do anything I can, to contribute to this great cause. Millions of women around the world are needlessly dying every year.  Although it's one of the most visible cancers in society, few will discuss breast cancer with an open dialogue," she adds.

McAuley's work is poised to bring new light to the lives of people everywhere. Till I Grow is now available at: www.tilligrow.com and Outskirtspress.com. ' Sweet O'l Mama ' will begin touring in Charlotte, NC Ovens Auditorium, mid June 2014.
