    A memoir of living with a brain tumor

    Tom Lubbock: a memoir of living with a brain tumour
    http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2010/nov/07/tom-lubbock-brain-tumour-language
    For art critic Tom Lubbock, language has been his life and his livelihood. But in 2008, he developed a lethal brain tumour and was told he would slowly lose control over speech and writing. This is his account of what happens when words slip away

      Wow....

      This reminds me of the stroke of insight. Except this is going in the opposite direction.

          I liked both halves, as well as how the first half transitioned into the second half.

          1st half reminded me of something from Final Fantasy X.

          2nd half sounded like something you would hear in a Zelda game.

          With that said, well done keep the awesome tracks coming~

              Amazing to see things from that sort of perspective from beginning to end. Being able to slowly see the changes in his writing style as his condition worsened was a bit heartbreaking, to say the least.
