All my life, I was troubled by debilitating and mysterious symptoms. Doctors dismissed my complaints, thinking that I was just trying to get attention as a child. I struggled through each and every day, tripping and falling constantly. It became much more acute after I retired and I began to pray for death. My life had become too much of a struggle. My book is the story of my day-to-day trials and my eventual triumph over my condition at the age of 58. Despite my debilitating and crippling symptoms, I continued to "soldier on" throughout my life, even though each and every day was just a struggle to survive. My condition became so overwhelming that I began to pray that God would end my life and all my misery. I hope that my book will be an inspiration and source of comfort for those who may be going through the throes of the condition.
