Opis

AND THE TIGERS COME AT NIGHT is a funny and light hearted book on a subject as serious as life itself. The author was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in 2004 at the comparatively young age of 62. The diagnosis resulted in major surgery. The book traces the four months from diagnosis to operating theatre. Down what the author calls 'THE PROSTATE PATH'. It deals with the fears the hopes - the Tigers that visit him in the pre-dawn. It faces each stage with humour and fun, dealing light-heartedly, not only pre-op, but the aftermath and the resulting problems as well. No-one who reads it can fail to be amused, and in so being comforted in their own distress. It is a must-read for anyone facing that heart-stopping diagnosis.
