Marisa: the scars that remain

'Marisa' is the story of the events which lead to the eponymous character's death. It is the story of illness, and family, and principles, and determination in the face of disaster. Mostly, it is the story of a remarkable, compassionate woman who always achieves more than seems possible, yet remains always true to herself. Proceeds from the sale of this book will go to the Multiple Sclerosis Society (UK) , the British Veterinary Association, and to Marisa's niece, Emi Miyamoto.
