Jeff Henigson

1980s era memoir of a SoCal teen boy struggling with all the normal things, including a difficult relationship with his cerebral, distant lawyer dad. A car accident leads him to follow up dr visit and then a discovery of a brain tumor; his sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant journey w/cancer treatment and surgery parallels his growing concern with the Cold War & nuclear proliferation between US and USSR

This is YA title, but it was a fun read. I was very captured by Jeff's story of his battle with brain cancer as a teen. The story is definitely uplifting! In the light of today's world, it was good look to the past...
