A gripping story about a teenage girl who finds herself facing some very difficult decisions. Grace Manning works at a local nursing home as a candy striper. Working in such a dismal environment is difficult, but one particular patient makes this job not only only bearable but actually enjoyable. Mr. Sands has an amazing sense of humor, which helps Grace deal with the divorce of her parents and the loss it has created in her life. This novel touches on many aspects and difficulties that many of the elderly face. Robin Epstein does an amazing job of sharing this heart wrenching story of a dying man, divorce, and difficult decisions.
