About this work

Description

"Courage is a unique chance to gain insight into the lives of children and young people suffering from sever illness. In it cystic fibrosis patients at Royal Brompton Hospital, Chelsea express their feelings and share their experiences through poetry, prose and pictures. Some describe the excitement of visits from Diana, Princess of Wales, who took a special interest in the condition; others tell how it feels to face exhausting daily treatment, repeated visits to hospital, or a life-saving operation. All show immense courage and an inspiring will to succeed with life against overwhelming odds."-- From back cover.
