Book excerpt: In this vivid, unexpectedly humorous, and inspirational memoir, Dave Collins provides front-line insights into his battle with leukemia. From the first subtle symptoms through the harsh reality of certain death, we go with him on that emotional roller-coaster into his home and doctors' offices, public places, and potty places. The pages are alive with his voice, laughter, biting words, and incredible spirit. Though Dave warns us of the harrowing nature of his final journey, this book is not about his death at all. What he considered important shines in these pages, illuminating a path which is not only his ride but ultimately our own.
