This book tells the fleeting yet deeply intense life story of Sofía, an Argentine baby who is diagnosed with a malignant cancer at just two years of age. From that moment on, her parents begin to go through an ordeal of doctors, treatments, hospitalizations, surgical procedures, chemotherapy, and alternative therapies that do not result in her physical recovery, but ultimately transform them into resilient human beings.
They manage to turn hatred, frustration, the neglect of the system, pain, and despair into a spiritual path that not only prevents them from falling into depression or suicide after Sofía’s death, but also transforms them into far more loving people. They are able to reshape their destiny by channeling all the lessons and energy their daughter leaves behind, rebuilding their lives, forming a new family, and traveling the world on a path of healing—not only for themselves, but above all for other parents who have gone through similar experiences.
It becomes an invaluable testimony of how to sublimate such pain into a renewed desire to live the rest of their lives with greater intensity and meaning than ever before.
