The death of Barbara Frum stunned and sorrowed Canadians. After a heroic - and very private - 18-year battle with leukemia, she left behind a country that loved, and respected her. As an interviewer for CBC Radio's As It Happens and CBC TV's The Journal , she was able to go one-on-one with anyone. Now her daughter, Linda, shows us the woman behind the microphone. This is the story of a family and how they not only coped with Barbara's fatal disease, but made the best of it, living every day to its fullest. The lessons learned from Barbara Frum will inspire and move all those who have missed her so much.
