Thirteen is supposed to be a great age--dances, cheerleading, boys--she never thought it would also include cancer. Dawn Rochelle is about to face the toughest fight of her life--a fight she has to win. Otherwise, she has only six months to live.
Dawn Rochelle has just turned fourteen, and her cancer has been in remission for almost a year. This summer, as she helps prepare for her brother’s wedding and goes to camp, her life seems almost normal again. But when Dawn returns home from camp, she’s suddenly tired all the time. Her latest tests show that the worst has happened: Her leukemia is no longer in remission. Dawn must receive a bone marrow transplant from her brother. Even then she has only a fifty percent chance of survival. Will Dawn live to celebrate her fifteenth birthday?
