Publisher's Synopsis
In 2008, Simon Fitzmaurice was diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease and given four years to live. In 2010, in a state of lung-function collapse, he knew with crystal clarity that now was not his time to die. Against all prevailing medical opinion, he chose to ventilate in order to stay alive... Here, the young filmmaker, a husband and father of five small children, draws us deeply into his inner world. Written using an eye-gaze computer, this is a journey into a life which, though brutally compromised, is lived more fully and in the moment than most, revealing at its core the power of love at its most potent.
