A story of a regular family with full schedules, dreams, ambitions and goals turned upside down by a devasting medical diagnosis. You won't want to put the book down as the author weaves his lifetime adventures and the challenges faced in seeking medical alternatives as his health progressively fails. Every family can relate to his messages and gather hope in their own situations even if not medically related. Highly recommended for those in the medical professions, families with medical challenges and will be especially interesting for those with previous military experiences. Should be in every medical center's patient library and on every Red Cross volunteer's book cart!

This book really gets down to the nitty gritty of what a family goes through when faced with a medical crisis. The situation faced by Ed literally turned the family upside down, it just makes one appreciate ones health. I highly recommend this book to anyone, it is certainly a lesson in life!

The family parts really interested me. I could almost feel the situation that the family went through. The advice in the book has really helped our family.

The book is much, much more than a medical case study of a man that survives a life threatening illness. It's a book that can be read on many levels: a series of practical medical anecdotes, a story of the triumph of a family undergoing an incredible ordeal, the life history of an extraordinary man (submarine commander, teacher, author), or a really good read. If you want a good story, get this book. If you or a loved one are undergoing a medical crisis, you MUST read this book, it could save your life!
