Patience

Patience is at the heart of the Willow family. Now in her 30s, she was born with Rett syndrome, rendering her unable to speak or control her body. When an opportunity arises for her to undergo experimental gene therapy that might reverse her condition, her parents Louise and Peter, and sister Eliza face an impossible choice.

Poignant, gripping and thought-provoking, this heart-warming story was penned by an author with first-hand experience of such a dilemma.
