I faced death twice, ten days apart undergoing two emergency brain surgeries. I awoke twice, a different person than I was before. My 15 year career finished, loss of many material aquisitions, both of which had alot of meaning at the time. Some days, in reflecting the past still has meaning, but not as much as it did in the initial journey of my life seemingly collapsing all around me. Today was a rough day, why I do not know! Some days are better than others, but each day is a new beginning in recovery from my brain being operated on. The most valuable things I have learned crawling/walking my path in life is that the Greatest Gift is Love, and Love Heals!

Somehow during my recovery, I have managed to compose and put together a book, titled, Poetic Awakening. The book is Now Available! The content is simplistic in nature, yet profound in a deep inspring way. The book came about by extracting personal journal entries from my journal that I kept following my near death experiences while undergoing my emergency brain surgeries. Certainly fellow "Survivors" will relate with my book, and it gives insights and inspiration to Caregivers and Loved one's.

Never, Never, Never give up!!
Faith; Hope; Love and Peace..
