From 10,000 Miles Underway to Facing Pediatric Cancer

Before she was diagnosed with leukemia at age seven, Eleanor had already sailed more than 10,000 nautical miles with her father, Sean Patrick Sayers. Their life was spent at sea, full of long passages, quiet anchorages, and the kind of freedom most kids never get to taste. When they moved onto an old trawler with plans to fix it up, they thought it was just the next step in their journey. But life had other plans. This diary tells the story of a family, of exciting days turned difficult, and of a fight no parent is ever prepared for.
