Coping with the serious illness of a child is hard enough for adults, but what about children who have a sibling who is challenged or seriously ill? Those siblings are often considered the forgotten ones.

Now some of them are being given a voice in a new book called "Day By Day.”

Author Christine Frisbee joined NY1 to talk about the book.

There will be a public reading of the book this Thursday, May 15th at 11:30 a.m. at the American Cancer Society's Hope Lodge at 132 West 32nd Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenues in Manhattan.
