The book is about two 17 year olds doing what 17-year-olds do all over the world. They fall in love. It didn't take long for us to decide that we never wanted to part. Today we are approaching our 39th anniversary. My wife, Monica, is in a nursing home and we both know she will never leave there alive. She has Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (the disease that the Jerry Lewis Telethon is all about.) About three to five days a week we enjoy a conjugal visit in her private room. I bring dinner, which I either buy or fix personally. We also share physical intimacies in celebration of our love. Philippians 4:11 says: "For I have learned in whatsoever state I am therewith to be content." I praise God for the time we do have together. Most of the book tells about the sorrow, joys, humor in raising two handicapped boys.
