Diagnosed with Progressive Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis, Joseph Wouk refuses to accept the doctor's opinion that there is nothing more to be done for his medical condition. He plans to go to the Amazon to try to cure himself with a Shaman's ayahuasca ceremony. Told with humor and honesty, Wouk pulls the reader through his thought processes as he watches his mind dissolve from the subcortical dementia caused by his particular variety of MS. Right before he is scheduled to leave for Peru, all his MS symptoms suddenly disappear from his taking LDN. Google LDN is Wouk's attempt at Dana Paramita, the Buddhist version of Christian "good works". You'll laugh and cry through the first part of the book and be inspired by the second part. A man who refuses to give up in the face of insurmountable odds ends up completely healed despite the hopelessness that western medicine tells him he faces.
