Alice Whittaker was never able to celebrate her 6th Birthday.
Sister to two older brothers, daughter of devoted parents; Alice's family, in one sense, was ordinary, their story together is totally extraordinary.
Dying of a condition that was never fully understood, or diagnosed, Alice's fleeting life and early death in 2012 is a story that needed to be told. 'She's just... Alice' chronicles a family battling together to make sense of illness, love, life and eventually death. Yet in the midst of real sadness, Alice's story is one of hope.
Read this true account of one family fighting together, keeping their trust in God, through the most bitter of times.
