Synopsis
Johnny Gunther was only seventeen years old when he died of a brain tumor. During the months of his illness, everyone near him was unforgettably impressed by his level-headed courage, his wit and quiet friendliness, and, above all, his unfaltering patience through times of despair. This deeply moving book is a father's memoir of a brave, intelligent, and spirited boy.

10/30/2007: I literally just finished reading this memoir at three in the morning. Not only the style with which Gunther writes but also the story behind it all and Johnny's experience itself, combine to make this memoir truly life changing. No more can be said about this book that I would recommend to anyone who asks.
