Opis

Hello, my name is Apostolos and I was born again on the sixth of February 2009 in a clinic in Mexico. These are the somewhat intense memories from the first one and a half month of my new life. The author had a mid-air collision with a fellow competitor at 10,000ft while participating in the 2009 World Paragliding Championships in Mexico, as a member of the Greek National Team. Two thirds of the book describes his near-death experience while in induced coma, and the rest of the book, the key events in the intensive care unit and his repatriation to Greece.
