I read this last night. I cried myself to sleep and I cried when I woke this morning. This is one of the most brilliant pieces I have ever had the privilege to read. If you have not gone through the dark days that were the beginning of the AIDS epidemic, then you must read this. This story conveys the terror, the hopelessness, the waiting, the sad journey to the end. This story brought to light memories that I had hidden away for many years. If you were not old enough to know those days or were not touched by them, you should still read this. It will enlighten you, it will teach you. You will not regret reading it. Loss is usually a personal thing, but this book proved to me that others survived this hell, while the ones we loved did not.There are not enough stars in the universe to praise this story.Found this song, so had to add it to this review. It's by Toby Keith, the name is "Crying' for Me""I’m gonna miss that smileI’m gonna miss you my friendEven though it hurts the way it ended upI’d do it all againSo play it sweet in heaven‘Cause that’s right where you wanna beI’m not crying 'cause I feel so sorry for youI’m crying for me"10 likes flag
