Cylon Basestar–sized thanks go out to the following people: Allyx Davison, for letting me into your life and showing me I need to upgrade my video game knowledge.

Becky Britt, for introducing me to Allyx, and your sincerity and thoughts.

Dale Davison, for the online time line of Allyx’s treatment on CaringBridge.com. It was more helpful than any book or Web site in keeping my character’s journey on track.

Eastman, Jack, and Al, for always answering my questions.

Jean, for the wonderful bucket list spark; Anna, for the lengthy editorial phone fun; Liz, for her glorious editorial prowess; Rich, April, Dave, Ksenia, and all of the other wonderful people at my publisher, Feiwel and Friends; and my agent, Rosemary Stimola, for her guidance and pumpkins.

My mom, for all of her support, love, and being the best grandma ever.

And Matt and Romy, who start each day with a hilarious, human alarm clock and end each day with snuggles and songs. Thank you for holding me up when way too many chips are down.
