Summary: Looking from the inside.
Comment: Yes, I'm the Author's brother.

We too (his family) have lived the experience of paralysis with him.

I think it is much easier for us to understand the emotions - the anger, frustration, sense of loss - that he discusses in the book.

An enormous portion of the credit for his lengthy survival with this terrible ailment is due to his wife, Divina. However, his tremendous will to live despite the loss of his most loved abilities - speech and delicious foods - must also receive a full share of credit.

His quest for knowledge and the desire to disseminate that knowledge has never weakened.

My brother is an incredible man!
