"Schiesser's memoir about his teenage son gives the reader the gift of insight, empathy, relatability, and comfort. Five stars are not enough!"-Vicki-Ann Bush, author of the Alex McKenna series92 HOURS is the bittersweet story of Ben Schiesser as told by his father, Rich. At its core is the special relationship Rich enjoyed with Ben throughout his short life.Ben entered his teen years as an overachiever. His grades were above average, he won awards for public speaking, science-fair projects, and athletic events. He was twice elected class president, was the quarterback and captain of his football teams, and was voted Homecoming Prince-all before his junior year of high school.Then Ben's life changed. Diagnosed with mild bipolar disorder, his grades suffered, his popularity diminished, he started getting into trouble, and he attempted to take his own life.
Ben's heart-wrenching journey is a cautionary tale. Today more than ever, teenagers are threatening to commit suicide and many are succeeding. 92 HOURS is a raw, urgent reminder of the subtle signs we often miss-and a call to look closer at those we care about to prevent a tragedy like Ben's.
