When I Go - E-book - ePub

Tom, a writer and loner going into his senior year in high school, is without friends; and to make it worse, he discovers he has cancer. Throughout the year, he continues to write letters to his former friend (Caleb), who moved across the country before high school. Shortly following the start of the year, he decides to ask a girl (Laura) to Homecoming. She introduces him to her own friend group. At the same time, while attending the hospital frequently, he meets an eleven-year-old boy (Noah) who also has cancer, and they become best friends.
Tom continuously battles with the cancer and ponders philosophically about life and death, slowly experiencing making friends, facing death, making amends, and finding love.
