“My late mother who lost her six-year battle with breast cancer in 1996 inspired Ask Me Tomorrow. In her fight against this disease she endured many rounds of intensive chemotherapy. I was a very young man during this time - a child some would say - and one day I returned from class and inquired how she was. It was a day where she was feeling particularly ill, weak and depressed from the treatment, but not wanting to burden her child she replied "ask me tomorrow".
-John Couch
