This Battle Will Not Be Lost by Sandi Millwood

In the paper “This Battle Will Not Be Lost” (2008), Sandi Millwood defines that life is precious.

She is telling her gripping story in a very emotional mood with a meticulous description from the moment when the doctors diagnosed lung cancer in her daughter’s body until they removed the cancer. The young mother seems to be overwhelmed with the situation but with the time she grows with the circumstances to “a stronger mother and person”. Through the love to her daughter she was able to withstand this hard battle and not to give up. She learned from this happening having the possibility to spend time with the persons you love, is invaluable. The audience is impersonalized. It is a report on one’s experiences to everybody to invoke appreciation by having the one you love around you.
