A short read, but full of amazing details of this man's recollections of family and friends. You can hear his laughter, feel his joy, anger and pain as he recounts his life before the stroke. His pain goes right to your soul when he dreams of walks on the beach with his wife and children. His suffering echoes in your mind when he hears the pain in his father's voice.
I cried throughout most of this book because I realized how many little things I'd taken for granted in my life. Upon completion of the book, I handed it over to my mother to read. She's read it several times and loves it as much as I do. I've also recommended this book to numerous friends who all agree that this is one of the best books they've ever read. I hope you enjoy this book as much as we have. And I hope the movie does this book justice.
