Editorial Reviews
Review
Robert Horn has done more real living than most of us ever do.
-From the Preface by C. Everett Koop, M.D., Sc.D., Former U.S. Surgeon General
[Horn] approaches it all with curiosity and humor.
-ALS Newsletter
This book . . . is both realistic about living with ALS and inspiring in the best sense. Horn shows how he does it and makes it look not exactly easy, but well worth the effort.
-Quest
How Bob and his family coped-and continue to cope-with disability and terminal illness is an amazing story that readers will find inspiring, heartwarming, and humorous and a celebration of the triumph of life.
The Phi Gamma Delta
Tethered to life by a feeding tube and a ventilator, Bob Horn rafts us through the narrows and shoals and open spaces of being.
-Richard A. Smith, M.D., Center of Neurological Study, San Diego, CA
...a book you won't put down and won't put out of your thoughts.
-William A. Anthony, Center of Psychiatric Rehabilitation, Boston University
...a picturesque tale of the human spirit - honest, wise, compelling, triumphant. And it's pretty funny too.
ˆScott Harris, Los Angeles Times
Faced with the choice between death and a life all too many would say was not worth living, Robert chose life, and in doing so he has made so many of us realize how much life is worth living.
-C. Everett Koop, Former U.S. Surgeon General
