Damn the Diagnosis: How I Survived Cancer Mr Joel J Nathan Oam 2.º edición

What would you do if you were told you had three months to live? In 1983 at age 43, Joel Nathan was diagnosed with a rare type of leukemia for which there was no cure. He did what many of us would do: he did everything he could to save his life. Diets, meditation, vitamins, Reiki, homeopathy, psychic surgery, spiritual healing, faith healing and Eastern mysticism. Nothing worked. Now, 31 years on, Joel has written a powerful and moving account of how, thanks to the lessons of his childhood mentors in South Africa and the miracles of modern medicine, he overcame his first diagnosis as well as recurrences, lung cancer, five-way coronary bypass surgery, kidney failure and stroke. Damn the diagnosis is a sequel to his successful and inspirational first book, Time of my Life (Penguin Books, 1992). It is a story of courage, told without self-pity and with rare honesty. It gives hope.
