His ex-wife, an actress, takes to bed weeping uncontrollably when she learns of her tochter s tumor. The girl ' s step-mother, an Asian-American physician, is clinical in her response, outlining a treatment regimen of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation. It is left to the girl herself, ten-year-old, Violet, to be calm, reassuring, philosophical, and even metaphysical as she faces death.
