About This Book
Elena Desserich dreamed of becoming a teacher. Although her time on this
earth was far too short to fulfill her dream, she left behind an
enlightening lesson plan on life. Wise beyond her years, Elena never
stopped teaching those around her to appreciate the miracle of everyday
living even as the innocent six-year-old battled a rare form of brain
cancer.
Through personal and candid journal entries written as a remembrance for
Elena's younger sister, Brooke and Keith Desserich share their emotional
journey as they negotiated their contradictory impulses to fight Elena's
cancer at all costs and realized the inevitable outcome. Page by page,
this journal is a reminder to parents everywhere to appreciate and savor
every precious moment they have with their own children.
Notes Left Behind tells a story of humility and inspiration. From the
time of her diagnosis, Elena accomplished a truly spectacular series of
wishes, big and small, that she alone created, from riding in a
horse-drawn carriage to painting a masterpiece that would hang in an art
museum. Her life motivated the creation of the foundation, The Cure
Starts Now, which today helps children everywhere in their fight against
cancer. The authors’ proceeds from the sale of this book benefits this
foundation.
Included in the pages of this book are Elena's private messages that she
secretly hid around her home, knowing her family would find them when
she was gone. These notes show us how even during the darker moments of
life, it is possible to find hope and encouragement through selfless
love.
