Summary: Get this for your Dad!
Review: I stayed up until the wee hours finishing this wonderful book about the power of family and what human beings can do if they have the will and the courage. Edsall's endearingly quirky family -- no Leave it to Beaver perfection here -- finds itself challenged as never before when her father has a stroke. Instead of accepting the doctors' hopes that he'll, maybe, play cards one day, Susan and her sister Sharon decide that their pilot dad is going to fly an airplane before the year is out and, with no help from the medical establishment, design their own treatment program.Lots of tears and laughter. This is the best Father's Day present I can imagine -- get this book!

Summary: Heartwarming. Inspiring. Funny. What Else Can You Ask For?
Review: This is a must-read! Told with a dry and self-depracating sense of humor, this true story could be the tale of any family in America who has been told by the medical profession that they should just accept the inevitable. I read this book in one sitting. I even bought two for family members. Within these pages are lessons in love for every one of us. Buy this book and read it. You won't regret it.
