For every patient, for every patient's family...A Pulitzer Prize-winning author has written what could be the most empowering--and important--book you'll ever read.
"An inspiring gift to all of us who remain one cell away from the pathologies that would kill us...unless we do as Smith did: Get smart, get help, get well."
--Phil Donahue
A New York Times Notable Book
o, Gregory White Smith's doctors gave him three months to live. He's still here. Discover how he, and many others in this life-changing book, beat the odds and survived.
The news was grim. Doctors at the prestigious Mayo Clinic told Greg Smith--young, handsome, and hard at work at the book that would one day win him a Pulitzer Prize--that he had an inoperable brain tumor. They gave him three months to live. Ten years later, Greg is fit, active, and managing his tumor with an experimental hormone therapy.
Like Greg, the other courageous people in this book--whose illnesses range from cystic fibrosis to cancer--have returned from the threshold of death. They are all medical miracles. Now you can learn how they made those miracles happen. Not a survivor's memoir, but a survivor's handbook, this extraordinary book weaves the insights of doctors and the wisdom of patients into a road map anyone
