This is a book by Mitch Albom. It's a true story about a middle aged man (the author) who discovers that his favourite professer from University is dying. He hasn't kept in contact, as promised, and so begins to visit the old man every Tuesday, as he dies. Excellent book, but it's a tearjerker. I cried for the first 50 or so pages, read the rest of it with a lump in my throat, and cried even harder for the last 10 or so pages. I completely recommend it. And if you don't trust me, it was an international best-seller too.

You should read it anyway. The professer is learning how to deal with death, and what it's like to know you're dying, and it's really interesting to read. He has such an optimistic view on it. It's also full of little philosophical thoughts that are cool.

Saw a bit of the movie the other day, if it's anything like the book then it is defintely worth a read.
