Life in Two Columns: What Truly Matters. And Everything Else.
The day a doctor says prostate cancer, your life splits into two columns: what truly matters, and everything else. The second list stops mattering almost immediately. We're trained to tough it out. Push through. Man up. That works right up until the one word that rewrites your future - and then the playbook is useless.
David E. Temple-storyteller, filmmaker, broadcaster-thought he understood pressure. Then one phone call tore up the script. He wasn't building stories anymore; he was living one. No playbook, no bravado, no idea how to talk about what came next.
Life in Two Columns is a brutally honest memoir about what happens when a man's identity collides with his mortality. Temple lays out the conversations most men avoid: fear, treatment decisions, sex, surgery, marriage, shame, and what it actually takes to stay human when your body turns on you.
It isn't medical advice, and it isn't a pep talk. It's a clear-eyed, no-filler look at how to make hard choices, stay sane, and protect the parts of yourself that matter when life hits harder than you imagined.
If you're a man facing prostate cancer - or the partner trying to help him - this book shows you how to stop pretending you're invincible and start living on purpose. Maybe it won't save your life. But it might change the way you live it.
