Paul Kalanithi is a gifted neurosurgeon, and he might as well be a gifted writer. You are holding in your hands his only book.
He spent more than a decade studying to be a neurosurgeon, and he was only a year and a half away from becoming a professor. He was already getting good job offers, he had a young wife, and it wasn't long before they would finally start the real life they had put off for so many years.
Paul was only 36 years old when the death he was fighting in the operating room knocked on his door himself. The diagnosis - lung cancer, stage four - instantly scrapped all his plans.
Who but the doctor himself best understands what awaits a patient with such a diagnosis? Paul didn't give up, he started to live! He spent a lot of time with his family, he and his wife gave birth to a beautiful daughter Cady, his lifelong dream was realized - he started writing a book, and he became a professor of neurosurgery.
