My son Max Gold Dwares passed away on February 18, 2004, from complications related to a bone marrow transplant that he had on July 27, 2001, to cure him of chronic myelogenous leukemia. This book is Max's story as told by him (and continued by me) and captured by photographs by myself and other family friends in black and white and a few color photos as Max began his chemotherapy until his untimely demise at the tender age of twenty.
The book was in the initial stages by Max but stopped as Max grew sicker, leading to his death. Max asked me to continue his book shortly before he passed away as a tribute to everyone left behind, but more importantly, as a reminder that while disease can be brutal and take lives, a positive attitude and faith can take you forward.
Faith comes in many shapes and flavors. It doesn't matter what race or religion one is. Max was born in the Jewish faith but believed we are all created equal in the eyes of God. Max, from an early age, always seemed somewhat special. What I mean was he had a unique ability to seem to get along with adults and understand how they felt. He always knew what words to say to offer comfort and understanding. This continued throughout his life.
This book, while at times quite emotional and honest, hopefully will serve as a guide for families going through a disease and how one reacts and lives through the process. It's a story of hope and dreams, of faith and questioning, and of one's belief in the eternal God when death appears around the corner. It's also a story of dreams and trying to attain them.
It's a story of how families rely and rally around each other when the times get rough. It's a story of how someone battling cancer still needs to carry on and live life to the best, and it's a story and testament to a young man who lived a short time but accomplished so much and has left a lasting legacy.
It's a story of how one's belief in God during good times and bad will serve as a beacon to guide one's spirit forward during the journey of life and life beyond.

I read this book, because I wanted to know what the son and the father went through and how the family dealt with the tragedy of their son becoming ill, struggling to survive and then dying. I wanted to know what it was that gave them the faith to keep on. While I found out how this family suffered, I did't get from the book what it was that gave them the ability to go on as gracefully as they seem to have done.The book reads the way someone might tell you how his day went at the end of it--what he did, how he felt. It read a bit like a journal, not a novel, not a story of faith. Yes, it was sad. It is also sad that no one bothered to proofread this book before publishing it. I didn't always understand the writing and there were so many grammatical errors. But those aside, it wasn't what I had hoped to read. I needed to read something to help me keep going gracefully through cancer. I didn't get that. If my cancer returns, I don't think I'll bother to put my family through the pain and fright anymore. I'll just make sure to say my goodbyes and end my life as cleanly as possible.
