The story of Daniela and Antonio, the girl born with an inoperable tumor and the pediatrician who didn't give up.

Silvia de Marcos y Miguel Ángel González posan con su hija Daniela en el edificio de la sede de la fundación CRIS contra el cáncer.

Daniela is three years old. She's a cheerful and lively girl who loves to dance and sing.
