Let me start by saying that I now realize why people think that this is a tear-jerker and one of the top sellers of 2012. Reading this book definitely puts you on an emotional rollercoaster.

I definitely could relate to some of the things that the author writes in this book especially in regard to the illness (cancer) that he describes. It really helps me to remember those that I have lost to such battles and how important
