Book Preview:

#1 I went to bed believing I was in control of my life, but I woke up realizing how little I actually was in control of anything. I went to bed with more grievances than I could count, but I woke up with more gratitude than I could measure.

#2 I was a boomer, born in the last qualifying year of 1946 to 1964, and thus the inheritor of a brand of overconfidence and defiance that doesn’t make adequate allowances for the wages of aging and inevitability of affliction.

#3 I had one relatively harmless carcinoma surgically excised from my back ten years earlier, and another erased from my nose by a chemotherapy cream. I had no problems with my eyesight.

#4 When you travel down the road of a complicated, unusual or serious illness, you learn that your ache for answers isn't necessarily everyone else's. While your situation is front and center for you, it is likely back burner for your white-coated saviors, who juggle scores of equally pressing cases and clients.
