Join Angela in her fight to live in the shadow of a fatal illness, and her best friend Marissa's willingness to do anything to help her.
Author's note
This is a story that's existed in the back of my mind for years, and I've been writing for almost a year now. It is inspired by real life experience, hospital volunteering, books written by Lurlene Mcdaniel, and especially my 6 months teaching English at a preschool in Japan, which is the basis for three characters, especially the very special little Tomoya who is based on a student of mine.
I have put in hours of research, use my personal experience, and spoken with cancer surviours to make this as believable as possible. Please, enjoy :)
