Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
Our daughter was also diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia so we could really relate to this non-fiction bio. Danielle's mom writes from the heart and we recommend this to anyone afflicted or knows someone diagnosed with any autoimmune disease and/or blood disorder. It's a quick read, educational, and kudos to her mom for being brave enough to share her difficult journey.
