The Readiness Is All
Description:
This book sweeps the reader across nine years and four continents, in the fateful odyssey of an internationally acclaimed actor who was suddenly stricken with a rare, life-threatening disease.
After several misdiagnoses, it was determined that Michael York had Amyloidosis, a blood disorder in which plaque infiltrates the body's tissues and organs with potentially fatal consequences.
His denial, acceptance, and eventual reversal of the disease are heightened by intimate details of the actor's private life, vignettes of his family, friends, and film legends, the astonishing depiction of a stem cell transplant at Mayo Clinic, and a charismatic encounter with John of God.
Ultimately, this journey reveals more than one person's encounter with illness: Michael York's fearless, empowering message of courage is an inspiration for anyone confronting adversity, and he brings it to life with resilient wit, unique insights, and profound humanity.
