Summary: SO INSPIRING!!!
Comment: I read this book in one sitting. It's really so beautiful. Jenifer Estess is quite something--funny, smart, charming. You can't believe she got struck down with the disease so young--ALS is ruthless, and what the sisters together have accomplished is truly amazing. I recommend this to anyone facing life's obstacles. It will inspire, and it will make you realize that one person really can make a difference.

Summary: I've found a new hero (or heroes)
Comment: I have seen the HBO documentary, "Three Sisters," with which this book is associated, and also read this book. Both were amazing and powerful, yet different. I walked away from the book, looking to do something more meaningful with my life, whereas the film was more educational as far as ALS is concerned.

The book kept me up, reading all night long, in a rush to continue with Jenifer on her journey to the end. When I read the final pages, I didn't want to close the book, in fear that the connection I established with Jenifer, Valerie and Meredith would disappear. The writing flowed like a familiar memory and the humor made me smile between the tears that dropped. I feel like I've known the Estess family for my entire life, even though I was introduced to them by mere text in the pages of the book. I recommend this book highly to everyone--not just those who have ALS or know someone with ALS. After all,like Jenifer, ALS could happen to anyone of us.

Rating: 5
Summary: A moving story of courage
Comment: I picked up this book on the way home from a trip for some airplane reading and could not put it down. I was somewhat familiar with Jenifer's story from seeing her and her sisters on the Today Show and other news programs when they started Project ALS. But her courageous story of life and love and what it means to be family really touched my heart - and gave me some much needed perspective in my life. I highly recommend it!
