Anna's Friends

Lessons Learned From a Short, Beautiful Life
By John C. Stuive and Kathleen A. Feeney

One year, eight months, fifteen days, one hour and forty-four minutes.
That's how long Anna Evaleen Stuive lived in this world. What she taught her family and friends in that short time, however, will live on in their hearts forever.

Anna's Friends is the profoundly powerful story of love, grace and life during the course of one child's terminal mitochondrial illness. The lessons it offers are extensive and rich, but the core message is simple--to be is a blessing.

As essential for parents of terminally ill children as it is reaffirming for anyone who has ever loved, Anna's Friends proves that the depth of a life is far more important than its length. We are all Anna's Friends, and there is still much we can learn from her short, beautiful life.
