Just finished God Grew Tired of Us about the lost boys of the Sudan (well mostly about one of them) it was very uplifting, hard to start but really makes you grateful for what you have.

Re: It's May - what are you reading?
Yep that's pretty much what it's about, but while he does describe some of his trials and tribulations related to having the disease, it also has other stuff in it. His first book is also about Parkinsons. My brother also has it.

Re: My Sister's Keeper - Mellenhead? *SPOILERS*
All of Jodi Picoult's books have dumb ass endings like that. I liked that book too until the end, I like all her books until the end.
