A lasting voice for breast cancer awareness
This poignant book will appeal to anyone who has had to face challenges brought on by tragedy or illness. Soraya, a Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, sang soulful pop melodies in both English and Spanish. She had two #1 songs on Billboard's Latin Pop Airplay charts and recorded five albums during her career. Then, in June 2000, she was diagnosed with stage three breast cancer. After a year of grueling treatments, she mounted an impressive comeback, dedicating much of her time to educating Latina women about the disease. Filled with hope until her final moments, Soraya died in May 2006 at the age of 37. Soraya reveals Soraya's life through her own words and song lyrics along with photographs and stories from those who knew her. It's filled with inspirational insights about how to get the most out of life.
