What does the following quote tell us about Ross? "As my dad and Linda started asking about things like prognosis and outlook and treatment, my balloon head kept slowly rising toward the fluorescent light above me. It was the weirdest feeling—like I was watching from above while someone else heard all about how dangerous this tumor was." (Chapter 6, Page 51) The shock of receiving his diagnosis is so overwhelming that Ross’s mind protects itself through detachment. He describes the feeling figuratively, likening his head to a balloon.

What does this quote tell us about Ross? “Maybe my defenses are down because of ‘radiation nerves’? Maybe it’s just a new kind of music I’m not used to—like it’s my kind of music and it’s been waiting for me out there. Maybe the proton beam is accidentally zapping my brain, and I’m having some kind of seconds-to-death moment of clarity. Or maybe I just need it now. I’m not sure, but it’s lighting me up in a way I haven’t experienced before.” (Chapter 9, Pages 81 - 82) Ross listens to Frank’s CD mix for the first time and doesn’t understand his powerful reaction. The music connects Ross with his feelings, foreshadowing the important role music will play in Ross’s recovery.

Ross feels a strong connection to the music.

Ross is indifferent to the music.
