What’s the story behind this book?
My life has been filled with death-defying accidents, surgeries, and life-changing events. When I was diagnosed with stage four cancer, I had a dream that inspired me to start writing and keeping notes. At first, I didn’t really think I had a story to tell, but as time moved along, I learned otherwise. By the time I’d finished this book, I had covered 60 years. I covered stories of dreaming to fly, U.S. Army flight school, many serious accidents, and cancer. But, most importantly, I knew this book could help others facing adversity. Everyone has morbid thoughts. It is all about how you deal with the mental battle as you are going through the physical battle. The title may suggest that the book is full of despair, but it is a story of optimism and faith in the face of despair.
