Sara | 2 comments I read this book when I was a teenager in the 90s. It was about a girl who finds out she has cancer and this boy helps her through it. He also has cancer. They fall in love and I think he died a the end. Any ideas on the name of the book? I want to say the boys name is David but I'm not positive.

Stephanie A. | 376 comments Could it be be Invincible Summer? I don't remember the boy's name or really any particular details, but this was published in the late 80s and reviewers say it has a sad ending.

Jordan Mills | 27 comments Did she have hodgkins lymphoma and were they both in hospice care with several other kids? Sounds like something I read as a kid.
