No one in my family or my circle of friends had ever had to confront something like this. Jamie was seventeen, a child on the verge of womanhood, dying and still very much alive at the same time.

Was it okay to ever get angry in her presence? Was it okay to talk about the future anymore?
("A Walk to Remember")
