Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. recommended by AP English listserv, appeals to 12th graders in a non AP class This nonfiction story reads like a novel and has all the elements of great storytelling. Through the story of Buddy Miley and his devoted family, we are asked to consider such important themes as right of self-determination, self-sacrifice, and familial bonds. It's not a sports book but a family book, very well written by an award-winning journalist. Highly recommended. "Like Any Normal Day" is the story of Buddy Miley, an athletic teenager who got hurt playing football and was paralyzed. He persevered as long as he could and, then, made the decision to contact Dr. Jack Kevorkian and, with the doctor's assistance, die and end his pain and suffering. It's a compelling and thought-provoking story that will stay with you long after you finish the book. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

In March of '97, two brothers took a plane to Detroit to secretly meet Dr. Jack Kevorkian. One of the brothers had been a quadriplegic for the past twenty-four years, fully dependent on his ailing mother for all of his needs. He'd asked his younger brother to help him end his life and relieve the burdens on his family. This is the story of love and devotion to family and what it means to let someone go at all costs.
