From the Daily Mail/UK: 12 y/o Athena Orchard recently died from a cancerous tumor on her spine. After her death, the parents were tidying her room and moved a mirror leaning against the wall. On the back of the mirror they found a long list of positive phrases the young girl had posted to the backing of the mirror.
A young girl, fighting or enduring cancer, the mind struggles and seeks positive input. She kept this secret for a later discovery for those left behind? Also, for her own passage through that ordeal? Today, for us? A state of mind, day by day, to make a choice about life, and perhaps death.


She remained positive till the very end. It was very hard to do but she did it nonetheless. I could only imagine what her parents felt.

Yes Marga it is very touching and difficult it imagine for me. The power of a little girl, behind closed door, alone and so wise.
