After being diagnosed with end-stage liver cirrhosis and faced with the bitter truth of such terminal illness?about only a year to live?Eladio Elizondo embarked on a furious mission to save his life. In this book, he particularly emphasizes on the monumental efforts required from anyone who has been thrown into the abyss of a fatal disease, and he celebrates how each one of these efforts can help a person overcome a terminal diagnosis. This book is more than a diary. In addition to being a testimony of what happened, it is mainly a retrospective on how the disease affected several of the author?s intrinsic facets. ? Physiological facet From being a healthy, strong man to becoming the morbid, skeletal shadow of a dying man, with massive abdominal ascites, severe portal hypertension, and traumatic encephalopathy. ? Psychological facet From the understandable yet exhausting distress and denial of being revealed a terminal disease, to the disturbing, terrifying phobias of an uncontrolled mind. From unbearably painful, anxious, and restless nights in Florida, to comatose, delirious, and excruciating days in a hospital in Costa Rica. ? Philosophical facet From asking what pain is, to understanding it and learning from it. From asking what victory is and requires, to becoming victorious. From asking what action is, to surviving a secure death. This book is also a manual where lessons are carefully engraved so that readers can use them, so that they can adopt them to their particular situation, and adapt their particular situation to them.
