Raising a healthy and happy family was the most important objective in our lives. We seemed to be succeeding with four daughters between the ages of eight and twelve. Life was good. Then without warning our oldest daughter, Alisa developed some symptoms that, at first, seemed minor. But as the days passed and she didn't respond to the antibiotics, we knew we were looking at a serious health problem. Little did we know that we would hear the words, "Your daughter has cancer!" From that moment on our lives changed forever. Alisa was sent to Boston to get the best care. It was a daunting task trying to keep the family going. Everyone was feeling the effects of Alisa's illness. We tried our best to maintain normalcy. I have written a book, No Guarantees, that tells the story of our experience with childhood cancer. It is my wish that our story will help many other families. I know when Alisa was diagnosed that I searched everywhere to find books or stories about other children. Please consider reading our story and by all means let others know who may be walking down the same path at this very minute. www.Knowledge-Download.com/Childhood-Cancer-No-Guarantees/ |
