About The Show

When a wife and mother who has always played by the rules learns that she has cancer, she decides to maximize the time she has left by living it up. She indulges in liquor and dessert and surprises everyone around her by no longer being polite to the not-so-nice neighbors, declining to entertain her husband's childish ways and refusing to let her high school students walk all over her.
