Dr. Okey Nwangburuka's New Book, 'Eleven Life Lessons Learned From ALS' is a Compelling Three-Part Memoir That Talks About Overcoming the Pains and Trials in Life.
SACRAMENTO, Calif., December 19, 2019 (Newswire.com) - Dr. Okey Nwangburuka is a psychiatric physician who had four board certifications in different subspecies of psychiatry by the time he started facing the challenge of ALS diagnosis. He has completed his new book, “Eleven Life Lessons Learned From ALS”: a compelling handbook that is divided into three parts—the first part focuses on the challenges and the journey on how to overcome an internal dialogue that persistently attempts to strip everyone of hope; the second part talks about the different issues in life; and the third part is a compilation of heart-touching poems that about the author’s pain, fears, and tears, as well as hopes and experiences.
Nwangburuka writes, “The diagnosis of ALS especially within the context of robustly healthy premorbid pre-diagnosis functioning strikes fear into the heart of not just the one so diagnosed but also family members, friends, colleagues, well-wishers, and acquaintances.
“In the ensuing months following diagnosis, the horror, torture, and anguish of experiencing one’s body degenerate, the loss of function, the helplessness, the associated indignity of not being able to fully participate in life as previously done can become likened to crawling through the valley of the shadow of death.
“Hopefully, the daily triumph of hope in the face of helplessness and hopelessness of ALS can encourage anyone facing any impossible situation to know that with God, all things are possible.”
Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Nwangburuka’s new book is a fascinating compilation of life-lessons through poems and stories of how the author thrives to overcome his ordeals in life.
