Leave Your Light On: The Musical Mantra Left Behind by an Illuminating Spirit (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781734484427)

Sometimes a soul is luminous, so incandescent, they blaze a trail uniquely their own. When someone like that, who goes right to the heart of it all, comes along and flashes a light so bright, you can't help but feel more alive.

He was charming and hilarious, ornery and aggravating, and he delighted in his love for music. Nothing more and nothing less than himself, his self-acceptance fueled his audacious dreams. Ryder lived a magical life full of hope, but he was also tested in ways many of us never will be - through the pain of a diagnosis and the hardship of chemo treatment. And when the cancer that should have beaten him didn't, his unimaginable fate showed up on a dark highway.

Then his light began to shine even brighter than ever. It led his mother out of the dark tunnel of her grief. It cradled a family, heartbroken by his silent guitar, to find healing. It gave people throughout the world who have never met him a new way of discovering themselves and illuminating their brilliant purpose.

For an unforgettable story that will inspire you to chill out and shine your own light - no matter what life or death throws your way - read Leave Your Light On.
