Interwoven throughout her talks are reflections on the three decades she and Fawcett shared.

From the importance of selflessness, to the undeniable value of faith, and to the remarkable resilience of the human spirit, Stewart reveals an intimate look at both the fight against cancer and the enduring love of friendship. "Even in the face of this debilitating disease," says Stewart, "Farrah's courage and determination continues to teach us about life and love."

Friends for 30 years, Stewart and Fawcett became an essential part of each other's lives after their first meeting at a dinner party during the 1970s. In that time, they raised their families, supported each other through the trials of Hollywood life, and kept in touch no matter what. Everything changed in October 2006, when Stewart learned of Fawcett's cancer diagnosis. Emotional, yet resolute, Fawcett was determined to fight and Stewart was determined to help her. Together they were relentless in their pursuit of a cure, traveling around the country and the world as they sought every mainstream, alternative, and experimental therapy available. Stewart spent the better part of the next three years by her friend's side as they struggled hand-in-hand with the unknown.
