In the last few pages of the book Ben’s health really fails him. He sleeps more often than not, and has stopped going to school regularly. He loses a lot of weight, and is unhealthy looking. Marla (his old therapist) comes in to apologize for leaving him, to which he replies with kindness, and forgives her. Dallas also apologizes, but in the end Ben apologizes. Dallas ends up spending the night with him, and we know that he leaves the earth on good terms with Dallas. The epilogue tells what Cody talks about Ben. This book is definitely a tear-jerker, and one of the best books I’ve read in a long time.
