A great read-a story about a nursing home and its residents; particularly 2 men named Lou and Joe. It describes their physical and mental struggles and how they deal with them. Lou and Joe start to depend on each other's friendship to get them through their days, with laughter, stories of their past, and dealings with the other residents. I loved these characters, and the story has stayed with me after I finished the book.
