Description
When Stephen's mother-in-law was diagnosed with terminal cancer, his family life was turned upside down. But when his six-year-old daughter is also diagnosed soon after, life quickly becomes unrecognisable, and the whole family is plunged into a challenging and uncertain world.
Fuelled by a mixture of hope, fear and love, this is the story of one family's tragic yet heart-warming journey through cancer diagnoses and treatments.
Told through the eyes of a father trying to guide his young daughter through treatment and support his whole family while struggling to cope with the extreme challenges himself, Stephen diaries the journey as he desperately clings to the fading hope of a miracle that might just see his daughter overcome the seemingly impossible.
