Publisher Description: 16-year old Amanda Perrotta lost her battle with Mitochondrial Depletion Disease after a lifetime of medical setbacks and disappointments. But her life was more than a mere journey through the struggles of Mito. It was one that compelled others to live life to the fullest, love others, strive for the good in all people, and always find positive in every situation, no matter how dire. Amanda's motto was, "The cure for Mito is living life," and the unprecedented way in which Amanda lived not only inspired and ministered to all those around her, it compelled everyone to see life as the greatest blessing. This story is her incredible journey through Mito from setback to accomplishment, from dreadful diagnosis to profound insight, and from her young heart to yours. |
