Although Mr. Hitchcox is a firm advocate of including the companion in the process, I was pleasantly surprised to find "The Wife Gets to Speak" at the close of the book where his spouse gives her perspective on the ordeal. More first-person books should take this route because this disease affects more than the man.
The book is short, laced with cartoons and a fast-read but perhaps exactly what most newly diagnosed men need. At that early stage, one doesn't have much attention span. There's also good resources, a list of questions for your doctor and a good, workable index. And don't let the year of publication (1997) stop you from getting it. He gives an attitude that will be needed as long as there is treatment for this disease.
I enjoyed the book well enough to wonder why it isn't listed at more Web sites. It will be at mine with a recommendation to get it - as I did - from Amazon.com.

Yes, Jack was murdered. Yes, the sisters were tried. The only injustice, however, is that Peggy wasn't found guilty.
You see, the lovely thing about tv shows and books is that they can skew reality into whatever they want them to say. They don't always show what REALLY happened.
You wanna know what REALLY happened with Jack, Peggy, James, and Betty? Why don't you read through The Huntsville Times for the past 10 years? I'll bet you didn't know that Betty Wilson had actually plotted to have Jack murdered at least once before.
Yes, James is a liar, but who knows? He could've actually been telling the truth.
I actually know one of the people who was a witness in the trial. I knew the victim (he was my family's eye doctor). I know what went on, and this book is an all-out lie.

"The book is wonderful. You should sell it as a movie. The plot is suspenseful, humorous and certainly better than many of the 'family' movies in today's market." Harriette Acorne, Petaluma, CA
"Your book is fabulous." What you have written is "in the vein of Jan Karon, except funnier, or Carl Hiiason except tamer." Betsy Goree, editor of Lonzie's Fried Chicken, Lynn, NC
