Sinopsis: La vida es una aventura preciosa que tenemos el privilegio de vivir. Pero conlleva múltiples variables, muchas de ellas fuera de nuestro control.
Estaba en la cima de mi carrera como profesor de cirugía, cirujano experto y dedicado educador médico. Entonces me lesioné la espalda al levantar un cortacésped sobre la plataforma de una camioneta. Después de tres semanas de incesante dolor de espalda y piernas, me sometí a una resonancia magnética. Sospechaba que tenía una hernia discal. Diagnóstico equivocado, doctor. Había sufrido una fractura patológica de la tercera vértebra lumbar, lo que significaba cáncer!
Las Parcas habían cortado una parte del hilo de mi vida. Me sometieron a una estabilización espinal de cinco horas y media, y la biopsia demostró la presencia de cáncer en la médula ósea: mieloma múltiple. No se puede curar esta enfermedad, sólo secuestrarla mediante quimioterapia, potentes dosis de esteroides y, tal vez, un trasplante de médula ósea de células madre. He experimentado todas estas indignidades y más mientras, al mismo tiempo, intentaba ayudar a mi mujer a recuperarse de un derrame cerebral.
Por encima de todo, encontrarás aquí una historia de amor, salpicada de desvíos, logros y vidas salvadas, perseverancia y triunfos, diagnósticos desalentadores y victorias.
