Jerry Hendon's story about the life of his son Kevin is captivating. Be warned: Once you have taken Hendon up on the invitation to be a co-participant in making meaning out of Kevin's life-story, you will find it difficult to separate yourself from the experience, until the final page has been turned. Kevin's story is well-written and compelling. While you will learn a great deal about cystic fibrosis, Kevin's chronic health condition that would ultimately take his life, all such information is incidental, offered only as it becomes needed to understand what is happening. First and foremost, this is a story that celebrates the human spirit and demonstrates how one can live life gratefully and with gusto, even while that life is being lived precariously. You will not be able to help experiencing your own humanity at a deep level, even as you celebrate and esteem Kevin's.
I saw the book “It’s Been a Good Life, Dad†on Amazon, and the story sounded intriguing. Once I started reading it, I could not put it down. The author told the story of his son Kevin’s 18 year journey of living with Cystic Fibrosis (CF). But it was more than a story of that young man’s life, it enveloped his entire family, his friends, school-life and the health care professionals that did an amazing job of allowing Kevin to lead a fairly normal life for most his years. Throughout the book, the story maintained interest by moving seamlessly from one aspect of Kevin’s life to another, weaving-in the various people who touched his life at different times. The hook was how Kevin touched & lifted-up so many people – even though he had this debilitating disease, he always found a way to bring joy to those around him. Of course, reading about his last days was a tearful experience, but well worth it. I was amazed at Hendon's ability to recall 18 years of key events in his son's life - he must be a meticulous record keeper! I highly recommend this book to anyone with a heart for people.
Jerry has written a heartwarming story about his son Kevin's struggle to live and die with Cystic Fibrosis. Kevin asked his dad to tell his story and Jerry has brought their life alive during this time. Even though I knew them I wasn't aware of a lot of what they went through. Made my heart swell with sadness but I couldn't put the book down. Whatever part they played in the struggle to keep Kevin alive as long as possible, Ann & Jerry went to the mat for their son. Thank you, Jerry, for putting your heart down on paper. I know this had to be heart-wrenching and exhilarating during your search for the right words in telling Kevin's story. Well worth the read even if you don't know them because you will by the time you read the last page.
“Fill your paper with the breathings from your heart.†Is a quote from William WordsworthAnd that is just what Jerry Hendon did as he attempts to remember all the details of his life with his son Kevin. This story takes place in the 1970s and 80’s so the future for someone with CF was not as hopeful as it is today in the 21st century.Jerry is a good writer…so he continually paints pictures of a family husband/wife and son with CF that is not as we know a paint by numbers picture.The family is brought together in their fight against CF. Ann, Kevin’s mom,is kept strong with a deep faith and Aunt Torchy turns to Shakespeare and all his characters in living through the disease holding up her sister and being a best friend/Aunt to Kevin.Kevin is a handsome and delightful child and teenager. I found his style and charm irresistible. I enjoyed his collections and his white Mazda!Jerry has left no stone unturned. He has gone to Aunt Torchy’s diary and even tracked down Kevin’s girlfriend, Susan,to find out exactly what she remembered of Kevin 30 years later.Through Kevin’s diary we find it wasn’t exactly helpful when she compared Kevin’s health issues to the trouble she has putting in her contact lenses!Ann, Kevin’s mom,became known as Momma Grizzly to the health care providers and even to how Jerry himself felt left out when Ann didn’t want to tell Kevin how serious his disease was and he did…was he just the payer?Kevin died way too early and at a time when hope was way off in the future for CF.Would that we could all be so lucky to have our stories documented in such a thorough, heartfelt and profound way.Thanks Jerry!Salt and Light
Once I started reading Kevin's story, I couldn't put it down. Though I knew him personally, I did not know all the struggles he faced on a day to day basis. This is a story of love, courage, faith, and an incredible warrior.
I am an avid non-fiction reader and this book did a great job of pulling me into the story and the lives of Kevin and the Hendon family. I found it to be informative and educational on cystic fibrosis, and life in a children's hospital while also including timely and poignant personal insights and stories, that make you become emotionally invested and keep turning the page.The honest approach of Kevin's father (the author) helps paint a clear picture and you feel that you are in the room with them through the ups and downs by the end of the book. I found the book to be both emotional and inspirational.The book is good for those who enjoy biographies as you get to know several characters well. This would be especially enjoyed by those who have exposure or interests in the medical world or childhood disease. I have spent some time as a patient in a children's hospital and I believe patients, families and friends touched by loss or medical hardship would find this insightful. A great book, I highly recommend it!
