Look! See Through Katie's Eyes

On Wednesday 19th October 2011, Katie McKay was told she had a tumour in her left eye. The news completely changed her life.

Look See Through Katie's Eyes is a personal account of her journey from her local optician's to the specialist eye clinic at The Royal Liverpool Hospital. The book charts her punishing schedule of hospital appointments and treatments that continue to this day, and records the emotional toll her illness has had on her and her family.

But her illness has also brought its blessings. Cancer has energised and inspired her to pursue her lifelong dream. Katie had always wanted to be a singer, but was terrified of singing in public. Since her diagnosis, she has recorded several albums, and she now performs live in public and on her local radio station. 'Cancer scared the life out of me, ' she writes, 'but it also scared the life into me.'

Look See Through Katie's Eyes is a remarkable account of one woman's strength and determination to focus on what she has, not on what she might lose.

Proceeds from the sale of this book will go to The Royal Liverpool Eye Clinic.
