how God answered a mom's small prayer in a big way
Sobiech, Laura
Seventeen-year-old Zach Sobiech sang "Clouds", the song he wrote, to a sold-out crowd at First Avenue, a revered venue in Minneapolis. But this performance was about more than a young man who enjoyed songwriting. Zach had been diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a form of bone cancer, and he was dying. "Clouds" was his farewell song to friends and family. But it didn't remain a farewell song. "Clouds" became a YouTube hit and was played on local radio stations. Zach's story went on to inspire millions.
When popular, sporty sister, Kristina, is diagnosed with cancer, her younger, brainy sister, Tess, is thrown into new roles as she becomes the center of the popular crowd and must be the strong one in her family.
Having had osteosarcoma at the age of fifteen and having had her leg amputated as a result, the author relates her determination to overcome a potentially fatal disease and her later experiences as a therapist to cancer patients in a children's hospital.
