I suspect I find that book not to hold truth for me because I've experienced ALS in both my spouse and my father... and it's IMPOSSIBLE for me to believe a person who is truly living with that disease has that much to say! (The capacity to speak goes pretty quickly.) And then there's the fact that everything he does say--apparently--sounds like an Oprah show or Brene Brown or something we've all heard before. Argh.. maybe I sound grouchy. But I think at his age and facing the end, there might be some surprises in what he has to say. Each to their own--very true! Enjoy what you enjoy :) Thanks for the read, and for following!
