When breath becomes air

Ugh… feeling a heaviness in my heart.

When Breath Becomes Air—a memoir by Paul Kalanithi, a neurosurgeon.
Yes, you read that right: was a neurosurgeon. He lost his life to cancer at the age of just 37.




This book will show you the true value of life. After reading it, you might find yourself regretting the time you wasted in the past—fighting with others, blaming them...

You have only one life. Live it to the fullest. Live it meaningfully.

In this memoir, Paul Kalanithi takes us through the highs and lows of being a terminal cancer patient—something many of us can deeply relate to.

If you ask me what the greatest wealth in the world is, I would say without hesitation: health. There’s no doubt about it—health is wealth.
