“Our daughter’s legacy is that her death will save thousands of other people’s lives”—that’s the commitment by her parents, David and Jackie Siegel, and their reason for publishing her diary, teen slang, bad language and all. Victoria’s diary, in her own hand and featuring her own art, is bookended by an expert foreword and intros by her parents before Victoria’s actual diary, and then medical advice, tips, and resources following her diary.”
