Episode 92: Delia Ephron

Writer Delia Ephron ran into a rough patch that lasted for years. First, her sister Nora died. After Delia’s husband passed away, Delia was diagnosed with the same type of leukemia that killed Nora. Doctors told Delia her own chances of surviving were not good. She tells that gripping story in a memoir called Left on Tenth. But not all is doom and gloom. Something unexpected and wonderful happened to Delia in the midst of all the loss, a real life love story that could have been lifted from the pages of Delia’s own screenplay of You’ve Got Mail. We talk about the funny parts and the terrifying moments on the new episode of “Now What?”
