- Author and screenwriter Delia Ephron, who is no stranger to romantic storylines, has lately been living one - having lost her first husband, she married a man she'd first dated half a century ago. But their wedding occurred in the hospital, where she was undergoing chemotherapy for leukemia. CBS News' Dr. Jon LaPook talks with Ephron about her memoir, "Left on Tenth: A Second Chance at Life"; about a gut-punch of a medical prognosis; and how love kept her going.

"Who forgets an Ephron girl!?!" I love that comeback!
I have been an orphan and a widow and dealt with trauma... writing released so much pain. One cannot endure such things without expressing in some way, paint a picture, take up Improv, so many ways to just get that out... to take thoughts that rattle around in your brain and express them. I read that article and it did move me.
Last year, out of the blue after such an eccentric yet grief-stricken life, I got a cancer diagnosis. It's in my genes, yet I was totally unaware as there has never been cancer in my family. It is difficult and you do feel alone because it is, in fact, your battle... but it reminds you connections are the most important thing to keep in our lives, no matter what comes our way.
Best wishes to Delia, and all other cancer diagnosis survivors. Correction .. best wishes to all!
I just read your reply to the beautiful you tube story and wanted to extend my good health wishes to you.
@@dawnbarber7980 Thank you so much. Definitely a club I never imagined I'd be a member of, but I've met wonderful people along the way. Take care!
I never realized how much I loved the Ephron girls and what joy they brought to my life. I'm so happy for Delia and Peter. God Bless.
What an incredible story. Much happiness to Delia and Peter.
I love this story! “When something like happens where everything fits in some way that is just extraordinary it just makes you wonder about life.” Indeed.
Resilience in the face of personal disaster (in this case, a string of sad news) -- always an inspiration to us all.
Best wishes to Ms. Ephron and her husband Peter.
This interview took my breath away…….as a listener you could actually feel the love coming through! Absolutely Beautiful 💐💖
Beautiful story of hope and love.
What a wonderful and inspiring report. Many happy years to Delia and Peter.
This is a wonderful, heartwarming story! I’m so happy for everyone!
We all need this. May they both have a great life together! Thanks for making this piece, was lovely, unexpected and plain life-affirming,
Love those Ephron sisters. It doesn't quite seem like the holidays without one of their "family dynamic" films. So talented, and I hope much joy to Delia in the future. Some of us have been through the mill. Live to tell.
Fantastic & inspiring story. I'm so glad this was shared by Delia. It inspires us all, both for falling in love and overcoming horrible diagnosis's.
I had a really hard day at work today and this story lifted my spirits. Thank you for telling wonderful stories of Hope and of love.

Wow...it does make you wonder about life...
Wow..❤️
Wonderful story very well told, no mention of god or other supernatural nonsense just science and excellent medical care.
Wish I could have such luck 😕
Wish I could have a kind and caring doctor who’s available when I need him/her
Cool lady
This is the same thing that people and families all over the world confront daily. I find her story no more compelling than theirs or mine. At least she didn’t have to use social media fundraisers to pay for travel and treatment expenses in the greatest country in the world. Why are people obsessed with celebrity?
I guess you were FORCED to watch the video
💜💜💜💜💜💜
So you get two chances huh? Isnt that sum shxt right there
"She's going from 'feeling fine' " to a "catheter in her arm". 🙄
Delia, Blessed to hear from you. If you can keep on believing in second chances, while fighting cancer, and recovering from losses that hurt you in the past, then you will have that ultimate strength, to keep moving forward for yourself. 🕊🤍☮️
