Tender and funny and will move the most cynical of souls.� -H. G. “Buzz�Bissinger, author of Friday Night Lights

Synopsis
"You keep fighting, okay?" I whispered. "We're in this together. You and me. You're not alone. You hear me? You are not alone. " 5:38 p.m. It was the precise moment Sean Manning was born and the time each year that his mother wished him happy birthday. But just before he turned twenty-seven, their tradition collapsed. A heart attack landed his mom in the hospital and uprooted Manning from his life in New York. What followed was a testament to a family's indestructible bond--a life-changing odyssey that broke a boy and made a man--captured here in Manning's indelible memoir.
