Description
'Okay, Lucy. Throw me a smile!'...The two girls grinned and a deep friendship was born. In the summer of 2001, Lucy Mortzou was a bouncy blonde seven-year-old having fun with her family and friends in the Greek islands. By the end of that year she was hospitalized and starting the fight of her life against an aggressive and rare form of cancer. Throw Me a Smile is the true story of Lucy's battle to survive, told in diary entries and personal recollections by the mother who stayed by her side as they fought this dreadful disease - navigating life in clinics and hospitals, enduring difficult treatments, and making and losing friends in the cancer wards of Athens. This is a compelling tale of ten months that would change their lives forever, which reveals with honesty and compassion the harsh realities of childhood cancer.
