Sinopsis: La vida es una aventura preciosa que tenemos el privilegio de vivir. Pero conlleva múltiples variables, muchas de ellas fuera de nuestro control.Estaba en la cima de mi carrera como profesor de cirugía, cirujano experto y dedicado educador médico. Entonces me lesioné la espalda al levantar un cortacésped sobre la plataforma de una camioneta. Después de tres semanas de incesante dolor de espalda y piernas, me sometí a una resonancia magnética. Sospechaba que tenía una hernia discal. Diagnóstico equivocado, doctor. Había sufrido una fractura patológica de la tercera vértebra lumbar, ¡lo que significaba cáncer!Las Parcas habían cortado una parte del hilo de mi vida. Me sometieron a una estabilización espinal de cinco horas y media, y la biopsia demostró la presencia de cáncer en la médula ósea: mieloma múltiple. No se puede curar esta enfermedad, sólo secuestrarla mediante quimioterapia, potentes dosis de esteroides y, tal vez, un trasplante de médula ósea de células madre. He experimentado todas estas indignidades y más mientras, al mismo tiempo, intentaba ayudar a mi mujer a recuperarse de un derrame cerebral.Por encima de todo, encontrarás aquí una historia de amor, salpicada de desvíos, logros y vidas salvadas, perseverancia y triunfos, diagnósticos desalentadores y victorias.Autobiografía: Albert H.

Sinopsis: Espero que os haya gustado mi primer libro, Mojarme Las Manos. Muchos de vosotros me habéis inspirado para escribir otro libro. Así que aquí va basura o no y mi saga continua con el temido Destino. Obviamente, todavía estoy vivo desde mi diagnóstico inicial en 2010 de mieloma múltiple no curable. Muchos encuentros adicionales con las Parcas han ocurrido desde nuestras últimas interacciones. Esta es una actualización sobre Sharon. Ella requirió una cirugía de espalda multinivel urgente, en agosto de 2010. Cancelamos nuestro viaje a Savannah en el último momento, ya que se cayó en el dormitorio debido a la pérdida de función en su pierna derecha. Se sometió a una fusión laminectomía de cuatro niveles y ha hecho grandes progresos con su fisioterapeuta, Marc. Su afasia expresiva no ha mejorado; ya han pasado más de tres años desde su ictus inicial. Su quinto libro de la serie Luna de sangre, Equinoccio de invierno, aún no está terminado. El manuscrito está en su Mac; cargo el dispositivo cada mes para poder guardarlo. Estaba tan cerca de terminar la saga de Candy y Thorne y sus interacciones con las diosas de la Tierra y la Luna y el dios Sol. Así que, con el permiso de las Parcas, que comience mi viaje.Autobiografía: Albert H.

However, one of the NSIU investigators thought it might have been political within one of the American parties.The investigation was difficult because there had been a growing divide in the newly expanded United States Fuel Supply Chain between many American politicians and news broadcasters and several foreign governments trying to regain their previous dominance over the world's supply values.By finding how the terrorists were found, who had directed them, and the resulting actions, the questions grew in many directions.
