The story of Ella Bresee isn't over, her impact will be felt by everyone she touched

I like to think I have courage. I like to think I have strength. But whatever I’ve shown in my life pales in comparison to the courage, strength, and out-and-out fight shown by Ella Bresee, her brother Bryan, and the entire Bresee family over the last year-and-a-half.

Ella Bresee, aged 15, fought until the end, surrounded by her family, those she loved, with love filling the room where she took her last breath. Her older sister Kendall posted a picture of the family this past weekend, each one in a circle around Ella’s bed, everyone with a hand on their loved one.
