More reviews from readers….
July 30th, 2011Sean-
I read your book on the plane yesterday. It was a beautiful read. No one should ever have to go through what you went through at such a young age. It is nice to know how much support and positivity you had around you during the experience. I was especially moved by your takeaway on how to comfort people on their terms. A lesson many never truly grasp. Congrats on sharing your story with others!

OMG!! I bought your book last night on my kindle and I am now totally exhausted because I was up so late reading…I could NOT put it DOWN!! It is so beautifully written. I wanted to ask you one question, though. The preface states that it is a work of fiction–is it a version of your real story though?? I am sure I’ll be up all night tonight finishing it–congratulations on getting published. AND, when you put it into amazon store, it is the 1st title shown!! WOW!! – Michele
Sean,
Just finished “Sick Boy”. I was moved throughout your telling, which touched my heart. Thank you for writing that account.

Just wanted to let you know that I recommended your book to a very good friend of mine. Her son (Drew) had a bone marrow transplant 1 1/2 years ago as a result of Aplastic Anemia. Right after the reunion, days to be exact, my Dad was diagnosed with Leukemia and under went a Bone Marrow Transplant. This whole process has changed my life and my passion to help raise awareness to these types of cancers and cures. Her son’s story is very moving, much like your & I recommended it to her due to the fact of the similarity in age etc. Drew’s life and recovery parallel my Dad’s right now & we are so fortunate to live so close to Boston where there is truly world class care-Dana Farber and the Jimmy Fund.
Keep up the great work- I am ever so thankful for variety of outlets & connections and I hope this helps her along her healing process, but to be hones its more like a journey. As I said my life and world have forever changed because of what I have been dealing with the past 3 years-but I would not change it for the world! – Jennifer
