This is the searingly honest account of the death of a baby and of a father's struggle to come to terms with the finality of his loss. The author deals honestly with the endless round of medical procedures, anguished relatives, stunned friends. Without melodrama or self pity, he relates how it felt to have a memorial service for a life that was less than one day. In the end, this is a book about tragedy that refuses to wallow in tragedy but finds, instead, a bedrock of life-affirming joy.
