Awards
Awards are made to children who have shown incredible courage battling
to overcome illness, handicap, or other adversities.
All have received the holiday
of a lifetime, the toy or computer of their dreams for example,
but it is perhaps the Brave Hearts Crystal, recognising they are
indeed special children, which they value most.
Every year numerous awards are made. One of the
striking features of all the children Brave Hearts has helped, is
the fact that each of them sees nothing remarkable about their struggle
to overcome adversity.
... because for each "Brave
Heart", it is simply a part of their everyday life.
As a final tribute … Many of the
children recognized by Brave Hearts were so ill that they have not
survived their illnesses, including Joanne herself, who died in
1993.
