About this ebook

What is the toughest request anyone can be asked to fulfill?

Travis Morrison is a champion diver and one of the most popular kids at school. On the first day of summer vacation, while boating on the lake with his friends, Travis attempts a silly stunt dive that goes wrong. He fears he has broken his leg. Instead, his trip to the hospital reveals he has a rare form of cancer, and to save him, the doctors tell his parents they must amputate. In an instant, Travis’s life and the lives of everyone around him are forever changed.

Travis is determined that he and only he should decide the course of his life. He has a plan, but he can’t carry it out alone. Will he convince one of his friends to fulfill his most important request?

Lurlene McDaniel tackles a controversial subject, probing the issues of personal choice and quality of life.

Any novel by Lurlene McDaniel is a 10000 star to me. Any book by her you can't just read a chapter or two at once you end up reading the whole book in one sitting. They are all just that excellent I am telling you. Awesome

I loved this book so much. It is an amazing book for teens to read. I love how she writes books for teens that are "real life" situations and problems. I can not wait to read other books from the same author. Great book to read when somebody is bored or has nothing to do.
