Andrew Reaster lived with Asperger's syndrome at a time when neurodiversity was far less understood. Despite the challenges he faced, he met life with perseverance, compassion, and a quiet strength that left a lasting impression on those around him.
*Profits from the book to be donated to colorectal cancer research*
In In His Own Time, Andrew's mother, Kathy Lemoine, shares his story. From early struggles to personal achievements, the narrative honors the resilience that defined Andrew's life. At just twenty-nine, Andrew was diagnosed with advanced colorectal cancer after experiencing only vague digestive symptoms. The disease progressed rapidly, claiming his life two weeks after his thirtieth birthday.
Through this deeply personal account, Kathy sheds light on the increasing rates of colorectal cancer in younger adults and the serious consequences of delayed diagnosis. This book is both a tribute to Andrew and a call to awareness. It encourages readers to listen closely to their bodies, advocate for timely medical attention, and speak openly about colorectal cancer without fear or stigma.
Written with honesty and purpose, In His Own Time is for anyone who has loved a neurodivergent individual, faced cancer, or endured the loss of a child. Above all, it is a promise kept. Andrew's life and legacy continue to educate, advocate, and protect others through awareness and early action.
