A reflection of obvious illness is apparent every morning when Olivia looks at herself in the mirror. The waiting for a liver transplant begins to wear on her emotions in that someone must die so she can live. How does one reconcile with such conflicting emotions? Finding comfort with her friend Caroline, Olivia attempts normalcy with their friendship. As the days have turned into months of waiting is time running out for Olivia? 

Jennifer Gladen expertly creates a story of patience and kindness from the unselfish acts of others. An all too real story that is important to share with children to invoke the same attributes within themselves.

1. I have a twin sister, Debbie - we look nothing alike, but have had psychic premonitions about one another from time to time...and they end up being true.

2. My nickname is Dee. My brother Tom married a Donna Marie and I married a Tom...so my 4-year-old niece nicknamed me Dee and it stuck. She's now 23!

3. I love watching scary movies in the dark alone.

4. My dear friends, Michelle, Dawn, and Mary are my cheerleaders when rejections come my way.

5. My 13-year-old daugther, Nicole, looks exactly like I did at her age.
