Living Life 90 Days at a Time: A Sarcoma Survivor's Journey is a warm, inspiring memoir. It offers the details of a patient's battle with a life-threatening sarcoma while sharing many self-help recommendations, humor, comfort, and support along the way.
The author's journey began with a discovery of an egg-sized bulge on the inside surface of his left hamstring. Some procrastination and difficulty in diagnosing the tumor caused delays in treatment. Then he and his wife finally found their way to the right physician and oncology team at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston.
The hard work of this team using treatment gleaned from recent research combined with Thom's faith and the support of friends and family saved his life.
Along the way, he shares the tale of three "angels," all perfect strangers who each carried an identical message. Coincidence or divine intervention? You decide.
The writing is sincere, honest, detailed, and sometimes even humorous. The mix of real-life experience with his suggestions for other patients is fresh and unique.
Whether you are an inquiring reader, a patient traveling a journey of your own, a medical professional, clergy, or a loved one or friend of a patient, this book will capture your curiosity and inspire your faith both in your fellow man and God.
