Description - The Weight of Him by Ethel Rohan
How do you carry on, when you lose someone you love?
Big Billy Brennan has suffered the greatest tragedy a parent can know - he has just lost his eldest son. His family is falling apart with grief, and his marriage is a partnership in name alone. Billy is also obese: at nearly 30 stone, he can barely walk down the street without breaking a sweat. In his small Irish town, he can't escape his notoriety.
So Billy decides to take on the two things weighing him down - his grief, and his fat - in the only way he knows how. He's going to get fit, and in doing so he's going to tell the world about the terrible plague of suicide that is haunting the youth of Ireland.
The Weight of Him is an unforgettable, big-hearted novel about loss and recovery, and what can be achieved when an everyday hero finds the courage to transform his life.
