David Aston was a good accountant and into his thirties. He knew that professionally he had done well but his physical acts were virtually non-existent. He was a literal eight stone weakling. He decided to something about it, but he didn't know what. After a lot of time looking at the various options he decided he would train up and walk to the Magnetic North Pole. Despite the incredible obstacles he faced he managed to defy the odds and walked there. A few years later he was driving his car when he had a car crash and his world turned around in a second. He was in hospital with a relatively minor jaw injury when all of a sudden he had a stroke and he had become physically and mentally impaired. He could no longer work as an accountant. He now knew that he had to defy the odds again and start to combat the stroke. He remembered his North Pole trip and took heart from this and a few of the tricks he learnt from the North Pole he started using them again but in a more serious battle against a stroke. This book tells of his fights, firstly in doing the impossible and walking to the North Pole, but secondly in fighting one of natures worst diseases.
