Eric was seventeen when he heard the doctor's verdict about the disease that wanted his life. At first he and his family could not believe it. For Eric was the picture of everything a youth should be --a champion athlete, a splendid human being, vibrant with energy, and loved by all who knew him, family, teachers, and friends.

The doctors could promise little. They would do as much as was medically possible. Eric had to do as much as was humanly possible. But if the odds were not good, they were good enough for eric. Given the choice between life and death, Eric chose to live.

This is Eric's story, as told by the person who lived it with him all the way --his mother.

When Papa leads the Bear Scouts on a spelunking expedition, it turns out Cousin Fred is afraid of dark, spooky caves. Through echoes, fang toothed stalactites and creepy bats, the cubs help Fred realize there's a logical explanation for everything and what may seem scary at first, often turns out to be nothing to be afraid of at all. However when the pack find themselves suddenly lost, it's Fred's cool thinking that leads them out.
