SUTHY (Somebody Up There Hates You) is what 17 year old Richard Casey suffers from. He is in the hospice ward of a New York hospital, waiting to die. He has cancer, really, but refers to it as SUTHY syndrome. He's had chemo, radiation and many surgeries but he is still a teenager and tries to make the most of life on the hospice ward. The quirky characters like Sylvie, the harp lady, Uncle Phil, Edward, and Sylvie's fire-breathing father, make this story enjoyable given the macabre circumstances. As expected with SUTHY, the language is surly and profane at times.
