message 1: by Amy (new) - rated it 5 stars

Amy | 12933 comments * I tagged this one science, because of the unfortunate journey that framed the book, a little girl diagnosed with DIPG, a life threatening brain cancer, that robs the world of children. I learned more than I ever wanted to about this disease and its treatments, and was reminded more than I could ever share about the power of love

I was so deeply touched by this book, as I often am for Mitch Albom's works. I have said continuously that Have a Little Faith was one of my most cherished reads ever. Mitch Albom always touches me with his spirituality. But this one, was about the spirituality gained by parenting, and also by loss. How can you not forever remember Chika, but also the incredible love one can have for one's own children, who are our miraculous gifts from God, and who teach us the depths of love. It was a hard read, a heartbreaking one - and yet reminds us of everything in life worth living, and fighting for. Five stars from me.
