i think this movie be excellent . i have be look for it for a long time and since it have not be on tv . it take place in a time that be a very much a part of my lifestyle in the 60 and 70 . the music and whole hippie atmosphere be very dear to my heart . i wish they would have make a sequel to sunshine christmas which be do after sunshine and tell the story about sam and jill . i be always curious a to what happen to both of them since this be a true story . it be a real love story and definitely a tearjerker but it also show a mother true love for her daughter . she know she would die and want to leave her something . the journal be a brilliant idea and i think she show a lot of courage to not do drug or chemotheraphy so she could keep her head clear . she love that little girl so much that she die early than she have to .
