Book and movie were both great--saw the movie as a child, and read the book in my early teens. Terribly sad, but moving.

supposedly DBS may also end up being a successful treatment for tinnitus.

I read Flowers for Algernon in my teens, and it affected me deeply. I'd forgotten the title until you wrote it...

Ah, but did you read Tom Godwin's The Cold Equations?

I read that one as a pre-teen.

The realization that stupid, minor, adolescent mistakes can get you killed will also affect you deeply.
