I experienced so many emotions while reading this book, and I strongly suggest that others read it too. I received this book through the First Reads program on Goodreads, and I am so glad I was chosen. The book was sad, beautiful, inspiring, and a reminder that life is precious. This family struggled so much through a horrendous ordeal, and this book was a father's outlet for his family's pain. I am beyond horrified by the hospital managing the care of this child, and I finished the book very angry. I live in NYC, and I certainly learned that even the most world renowned health care facilities make huge, life altering mistakes. Doron Weber did everything in his power to save his child; the hours of research he dedicated to learning about Damon's illness and who should be managing it was impressive. I enjoyed the book and my heart goes out to this family for everything they went through. Doron Weber is a wonderful writer.
