Gift of a Lifetime - Finding Fulfilling Things in the Unexpected

The purpose of this book is not to document the medical but rather to tell a story that may give insight into a question I have asked myself all my life. "Despite the odds, what contributing factors in childhood illness lead one person to survive and thrive, when others do not?""A delightful narration of the heartwarming relationship amongst a remarkable older women, a brave young girl with a serious medical condition, and her family. This is a story of trust, faith, friendship, and deep love for one another. Readers will be inspired by Ms. Leonard's challenges that would empower her to live a life most fulfilling." - Barbara Gueldner, Ph.D., MSE, Licensed Psychologist
