My Emily by Matt Patterson



Editorial Reviews

Product Description

This book tells the story of a hurting family, an amazing little girl and a mysteriously faithful God.

Emily wasn't born perfect - so one might think.

She was born with Down Syndrome and many would jump to the conclusion that she would have very little hope for a life with any significance. Two years later came the diagnosis of leukemia. What little hope remaining turned to no hope whatsoever - or so one might think.

The life of this little girl, with all its perceived imperfections, had great meaning. Her loving nature and courage touched the hearts of everyone she met. She also taught them how to value their own lives - even with their many "imperfections."

Note: A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this book will help families with special needs children, those who are battling pediatric cancers, as well as parents grieving the loss of a little one.

Review:
Very inspiring story,  it feels like you know Emily and that you cry and laugh with her family and her , such a beautiful soul and Angel. You see it through her father's eyes that wrote his story and it touch you very much, keep the kleenex close! I highly recommend it especially when you have a special Angel yourself.
