Miracle girl: A book of bravery and resilience

 "Vovo always had a smile and never complained; she made jokes and kept all our spirits up. This,of course, was the wrong way around as we were all so worried about her. We were trying so hard to keep on a brave face through everything. She always remained calm and I believed in Vovo’s quiet strength and positivity. The doctors and nurses all, by comparison, seemed a little gloomy, but Vovo told me many times, ‘Tony, I will beat this!’" That was an extract from the book "Miracle girl"
