About this eBook

And these are they. My final moments. They say a warrior must always be mindful of death, but I never imagined that it would find me like this . . .

Japanese teenager Sora is diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease). Lonely and isolated, Sora turns to the ancient wisdom of the samurai for guidance and comfort. But he also finds hope in the present; through the internet he finds friends that see him, not just his illness. This is a story of friendship and acceptance, and testing strength in an uncertain future.

I love this book, i carry it around everywhere. It helped me look at the future and see that theres life we should wait to get. I feel bad for Sora but im sure wherever he is now his happy and relaxed. I loved this emotional book and the author is very talented.
