Produktbeschreibung

The law of physics dictates that energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be changed from one form to another. Diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) in the midst of a thriving cardiology practice, author and physician Dhaval R. Patel tells the story of his own transformation from doctor to patient in this candid new memoir. Patel's writing reveals both the heart-rending challenges and the unexpected and uncommon joy he encounters as a person living with ALS. The Impulse of Energy explores the kaleidoscopic nature of memory, mixing reflections on the author's life today with cherished recollections of his youth and days as an itinerant med student. It is a guidebook of honest encouragement for anyone living with or caring for someone with a serious illness. DHAVAL R. PATEL, MD grew up as the only son of first-generation Gujarati Indian parents. After discovering a passion for playing the drums at young age, Patel chose to fulfill his father's dream for him by becoming a doctor. He studied medicine at Tulane and Emory Universities and continued to practice cardiology after he was diagnosed with ALS in 2020. He retired in 2023 and lives in Virginia with his family. The Impulse of Energy is his first book.
