Keith and Brooke Desserich shared the story of their 6-year-old daughter, Elena, who succumbed to pediatric brain cancer, with the "Today" show. From the wishes she accomplished to the love letters she carefully hid for her parents to find after she was gone, their journey is one of hope and inspiration. They tell the story in their new book, Notes Left Behind, which began as a journal they kept after Elena, at 5 years old, was diagnosed and given just 165 days to live. Momlogic sat down with Keith to find out more about their incredible story.Read more: http://www.momlogic.com/2009/10/notes_left_behind_a_six-year- olds_story_of_hope_keith_desserich.php#ixzz0VMUhT4Pc http://www.notesleftbehind.com

What an angel. Thanks for sharing. quote: This is Our Elena... She always eats her vegetables first. She can never wear enough pink. She always writes her name backwards—not because she doesn’t know how to write it, but because she “just likes the way it looks.” She crosses her legs when she sits. There is nothing better than art class, except, of course, a trip to the library.
