\n\u201cThe association's name says you all know how to see the positive side: that every human life is unique, that if the illness is rare or very rare, life is also rare. That positive view is a miracle typical of love. And love does this: it knows how to see the good in the negative situations, it knows how to safeguard the small flame in the middle of a dark night.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
