Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When Kirsty Jayne Pearce was born-full term-on February 22, 1986, she weighed just three pounds, twelve ounces. A fighter, Kirsty survived, but she was destined to experience a lifetime of an array of medical issues until her untimely death when she was seventeen years old.In this memoir, Kirsty's father, Charles Pearce, tells her story of courage and stubbornness-of her birth in 1986; her baby, toddler, and adolescent years; her loving relationship with her mother Peggy, father Charles, and brother Tim; her unnecessary death in August of 2003; and the events that followed her passing. In Kirsty, Charles seeks justice for his daughter, who, he believes, died as a result of inadequate medical care.Kirsty provides a loving remembrance of a girl who suffered much pain in her young life, but who was honest, funny, and brave. More than that, it shows how life can change drastically without warning.
