Synopsis
Brooke and Keith Desserich share the inspirational story of their late daughter Elena, who accomplished more in her six years of life than many people do in much longer lifetimes. When she was diagnosed with a terminal form of brain cancer, little Elena resolved to achieve as many of her dreams as possible in whatever time she had left, and her amazing energy, compassion, and ambition became a guiding light to help her parents through the agony of losing her. The Desserichs began keeping a journal of Elena's life for her younger sister, and they also include the touching notes and drawings which Elena hid around the house for her family to find after she was gone.

Publisher's Note
Elena Desserich dreamed of becoming a teacher. Although her time on this earth was far too short to fulfill her dream, she left behind an enlightening lesson plan on life. Wise beyond her years, Elena never stopped teaching those around her to appreciate the miracle of everyday living even as the innocent six-year-old battled a rare form of brain cancer. NOTES LEFT BEHIND tells a story of humility and inspiration. From the time of her diagnosis, Elena accomplished a truly spectacular series of wishes, big and small, that she alone created, from riding in a horse-drawn carriage to painting a masterpiece that would hang in an art museum. Her life motivated the creation of the foundation that today helps children everywhere in their fight against cancer. Included in the pages of this book are Elena's private messages that she secretly hid around her home, knowing her family would find them when she was gone. These notes show us how even during the darker moments of life, it is possible to find hope and encouragement through selfless love.
