OverviewA young boy's life is shattered when his mentor and older brother breaks his neck playing high school football and lands in a wheelchair. Teetering at poverty line without insurance, all resemblance of a normal family or social life is snatched away from the boy and his family; stress replaces love in the home. Later on, as a young adult, the same little boy witnesses his youngest brother's battle against leukemia, a child killer, and he prays that he doesn't die. As if he hadn't had enough anguish during his youth, twenty years later the same boy, now a man and father himself, is forced to endure the helpless sorrow and pain watching his three year old son fight cancer, a 4 year battle of never ending therapy, pain and tragedy. Hello, my name is Chuck Kesterson, and I am the young boy and father who is witness to all the tragedies described above. I have written a 76,000 word, nineteen chapter novel of these non-fictional events. My book's main objectives are to paint a picture with words detailing my wonderful early childhood and how it was shattered with the tragedy of my older brother's accident and my little brother's fight with leukemia. I continue on in biographical sequence to explain my participation as a firefighter during two major airplane crashes, then on to describe the events surrounding my 3 year old boy's four year battle with cancer.
