This is the true story of a six-year-old girl named Elena and her battle against cancer. In her last days she showed a community how to love and how to live. Written through the eyes of her parents as a remembrance for her younger sister, her daily story tells one of humility and inspiration as she lives each day, one at a time. In her short time she painted a masterpiece that would hang in an art museum, she accomplished a truly spectacular series of wishes that she alone created, and she inspired a cause that remains today to help children everywhere in their fight against brain cancer.This is an amazing story. As a mother myself, I have learned to cherish and hold my kids a little longer each day. Every moment counts. Every family needs to read this book. I think the book is a beautiful story of the loss and love of this family and her daughter. However I had to stop readimg every detail ans just get the main ideas after half way through the book. I became paranoid watching every move my kids made to seeif they had some symptoms of anything. Since readimg the book I kniw of two families with children diagnosed with the same illness. The book both reminded me of the fact the my children are precious and that I get freaked outway too easily!!
