What do you do when the person who is supposed to hold you together can no longer hold herself up?
Even When She Can't is a powerful, faith-filled novel told through the eyes of Alexzandria - a girl who grows from age ten to fifteen watching her mother, Lilly Ayala, battle a chronic illness that changes everything. Alongside her older sister Raquel, her steadfast Abuela Luisa, and a God she is still learning to trust, Alexzandria discovers that love does not stop when a body does.

Alongside her older sister Raquel, her steadfast Abuela Luisa, and a God she is still learning to trust, Alexzandria discovers that love does not stop when a body does.
This is a story about ambulance sirens and cereal bowls. About daughters who unlock front doors when they are terrified. About a mother whose hands cannot always reach - but whose love never stops trying. And about a God who holds every person in the story in the very same hands.
Even When She Can't speaks directly to the heart of any child who has ever lived in a home where illness and love share the same space - and to every parent, educator, and caregiver who wants to give them language for what they are carrying.
