"In a town called Paradise, California ... lived a young man named
John Gilbert. I like to think of him as a friend of mine, though
we've never met. When he was five years old, John was diagnosed
with Duchenne muscular dystrophy. It is a genetic, progressive, and
cruel disease. He was told it would eventually destroy every muscle
and finally, in a space of ten more years or so, take his life.
John passed away a short while ago at the age of twenty-five.
Toward the end of his life...he had only enough strength to move a
computer mouse with his right hand. But he did that brilliantly. He
sent me a manuscript of the story of his life that is one of the
most moving pieces I have ever read." John Ortberg Author Pastor,
Menlo Park Presbyterian Church This book is about hope and
perspective, offered to those who know both disease and aloneness
in all their forms, and to those who desperately love the many in
our midst who are seemingly "among the least of these." Our hope is
that you will find value in John's story and his father's
reflections.
