Helpful Score: 1

I knew this wasn't going to be a book with a "happily ever after," yet the emotions I experienced while reading it does not even compare to what this family endured throughout their battle with their daughter Elena's illness. This was an amazing and heartwarming (true) story/chronology of a strong-willed family brave enough to share the details and experiences throughout the years in which Elena battled brain cancer, desperate to see her beat the odds. As the author conveys, "Elena's lesson is not one of death and cancer; instead it is one of hope and life." After reading this book, I will remind myself more frequently that each day is truly a gift.
