OAKS, Pa., Jan. 25, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Life is a journey wrought with many trials that will test the strength of your faith. Author Daniel Joseph shares the inspirational story of her sister, Cecilia Grace, and her unwavering faith despite her battle with cancer in a heartwarming book, The Miracle Molecule and My Dear Little Sister.
At the age of nineteen, Cecilia has lived a full life: intellectually blessed, musically inclined, poetically gifted, and God-centered. She struggled with everyday disappointments, peer pressure, loneliness, depression and worse, cancer. Yet despite all these tribulations, her faith and strength never wavered but remained steadfast. The author describes how her sister endured with courage and strength her cancer treatments. But as all battles cannot be won, Cecilia lost her life to a rare form of cancer.
The Miracle Molecule and My Dear Little Sister is truly a heartwarming story of Cecilia's life and the poignant journey of her soul. The author hopes that this book will be an inspiration to people especially the young ones to be good students and understand the mystery of suffering. As the author's little sister said, "Never give up on life, it is a great gift from Heaven." Though not all battles are won, what matters is that you lived life to the fullest and in doing so, touched the lives of those around you.
