Donal Walsh first came to international attention in Ireland aged
sixteen, when a letter he wrote speaking out against the suicide
epidemic in young people was published in the Irish Sunday
Independent. At the time Donal was dying of cancer having battled
it since the age of twelve through invasive and painful chemo
treatments and operations. Donal had no choice about dying - and he
wanted others to see that death is not an answer. With only a few
weeks to live, Donal went on television and again spoke about the
importance of living and of finding help in times of trouble. A few
short weeks later, on May 12th 2013, Donal lost his battle with
cancer and passed away. In this sometimes heart-breaking but
ultimately inspirational book we see the boy behind the illness and
hear the story of how one young boy from County Kerry who, in
dying, shows us how to live life. From the close bonds he had with
his parents, his sister and young friends, to the unique and
inspirational outlook he had on life we hear of how he came to
terms with his illness and how he spent his last weeks making as
much of a difference to other people's lives as he could. All Donal
asked before he died was that his parents continue his legacy and
the message of the importance of living life. This book is his
legacy.
