Product Information

"This is the story of an extraordinary boy with a brilliant mind, a heart of gold, and a tortured soul. It is the story of an illness, a fight to live, and a race against death. I want to share the story, and the pain, the courage, the love, and what I learned in living through it. I want Nick's life to be not only a tender memory for us, but a gift to others. . . . I would like to offer people hope and the realities we lived with. I want to make a difference. My hope is that someone will be able to use what we learned, and save a life with it."--Danielle Steel From the day he was born, Nick Traina was his mother's joy. By nineteen, he was dead. This is Danielle Steel's powerful, personal story of the son she lost and the lessons she learned during his courageous battle against darkness. Sharing tender, painful memories and Nick's remarkable journals, Steel brings us a haunting duet between a singular young man and the mother who loved him--and a harrowing portrait of a masked killer called manic depression, which afflicts between two and three million Americans. At once a loving legacy and an unsparing depiction of a devastating illness, Danielle Steel's tribute to her lost son is a gift of life, hope, healing, and understanding to us all.

not many Steel fans will want to read this book
NOT your usual Danielle Steel book - the author 'steps outside herself' and allows us to see her real-life as a Mother. I've known a number of guys who came back from Vietnam - and killed themselves once home, while avoiding getting killed "in country": what drives a man who tired so hard (and so successfully) to come back alive decide to 'end it all' once he was safe at home? Stell's book won't answer THAT question - but she deals with the "forbidden" topic of suicide. In my experience, the family of a suicide are bitter and hostile:" How could he do this to us?! The disgrace this brings on us! How weak and cowardly!" they say. Ms. Steel loved "Nicky" in his life - and after his death: she doesn't see him as a "coward" or "weakling" for killing himself - and devotes the proceeds of ...

The disgrace this brings on us! How weak and cowardly!" they say. Ms. Steel loved "Nicky" in his life - and after his death: she doesn't see him as a "coward" or "weakling" for killing himself - and devotes the proceeds of each book's sales to a Foundation in his memory. Her stated objective is to help at least one family prevent a suicide by writing the 'warning signs' Nick gave - but were not so obvious - then. Unlike some - who simply said "he died" - and conceal a suicide in the family, Steel is willing - painful as it is - to write about the events which lead to Nick's taking his life. Was her herion-using son really 'bi-polar'? We'll never know for sure. She recounts times he lied to her - as all drug addicts do as "the drug" becomes the center of their universe. Maybe more 'tough love' from her would have worked? Experts told her how to cope - maybe their advice was wrong? Did she place too much reliance upon doctors' opinions? Would having cosulted different professionals have averted the suicide? Nick showed little motivation - was this an illness, drug use, or simply being lazy? She makes us think. Danielle Steel says we must stop asking "What disease does a person have?" - and, instead, ask: "What kind of disease has gotten ahold on a loved one?"

VERY TOUCHING STORY
Reading the book was an eye opener for me that mental illness can affect even the rich and famous and how hard it must be to watch your child endure so much pain. Although I have not had anyone close or related to me this disease, it gave me a better understanding of the sickness that so many have had to live with or without medication and the whole ordeal of diagnosis, treatment and the sleepless nights from worrying. Thank you Danielle for telling Nick's story for all to read!Reading the book was an eye opener for me that mental illness can affect even the rich and famous and how hard it must be to watch your child endure so much pain.

His Bright Light by Danielle Steele
This book was excellent. It's a true story about her son and his life and death. He had bipolar and was manic depressive.. I learned alot from this book and I also respect Danielle Steele as a mother who went through such horrific times with her son and her devotion to making things as best as she could with Nick and his disease. I recommend this book to anyone and everyone.
