 A must read for anyone with children and especially a family with cancer November 23, 2008
Having just gone through our own fight with cancer this has been a book that has given my entire family a perspective that is presented in an easy to read format. After reading each chapter there is something to talk to my family about. Cancer is something that can change everything in your life. The more chances to talk to loved ones about these changes the better. It is heartbreaking that Rancy Pausch left his family and us at such an early age, but what he has left for all of us will be discussed for generations to come.
AWESOME November 23, 2008
THIS BOOK WILL GIVE A UNIGUE PROSPECTIVE OF LIFE AND HE IS A GREAT MAN ANYWAYS
This book is awesome!!! November 22, 2008
Randy Pausch's "Last Lecture" is a great companion to his YouTube hit lecture. He is so very insightful and comic at times. It will make you want to laugh and cry all in one.
Life-Affirming & Life-Changing November 21, 2008
With laughter and tears I devoured this must-read. Required reading for high schoolers, college students, engaged couples, married couples, parents-to-be, parents of teens, and those facing terminal health conditions: There's something here worth reading for every stage of life!
Book of the year November 19, 2008
This is one of the few books I have read this year that I can strongly recommend. Randy Pausch tells it like it needs to be told. He doesn't hold anything back and I was absolutely moved to tears.
Many times in our lives, we know what we should be doing but don't always do it. The things that Randy says in this book are things we should be doing NOW instead of waiting for a terminal diagnosis.
The thing about Randy that impressed me the most was that he refused to feel sorry for himself. What a terrific thing for us all to remember and live by. Many of us may have terribly difficult circumstances in our lives that are hard to live with. If a man with a terminal diagnosis can find happiness and productivity with a prognosis of pancreatic cancer, then we ALL can.
If you read no other book this year, please read this one. I can almost guarantee you won't be disappointed.
