When Breath Becomes Air


Book #77 Read in 2016
When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi

This is a moving memoir of a neurosurgeon in his 30s who is diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer.  He is a realist when it comes to his disease and his wife, also in the medical field, continue to live life as long as possible.  It was a quick read, flowed well and gripped my heart.  It makes one pause to consider how lucky one is to be healthy and alive.  I recommend this read.
