Impatient with her slow recovery and obsessed with getting life back to normal Bea tries out various therapies and along the way discovers that laughter can be the best medicine.

Expressed mainly through a series of letters and anecdotes, Bea describes the idiosyncrasies of her daily life and shows just how funny human beings and situations may appear.

The all patient Dr B, and the mysterious Dr Ling play an important part in the mosaic of Beas life and her eventual road to recovery.
