Praise
“I had the privilege of Weldon’s visits during my long journey post Liver Transplant. His kindness, courage and faith got me through a time when I wanted to give up. I looked forward to his twice weekly visits that gave me the strength to carry on. I’m now two years post and am a survivor. Thank you Weldon Bradshaw and peace be with you always.” – Cheryl Barnes
“This book works on a number of levels. It is first and foremost an inspiring story of a man’s battle with liver disease. Bradshaw does a great job chronicling his journey on that level alone. He is direct and honest and doesn’t sugarcoat his medical struggles. But more than that, this book reveals a dedicated teacher, coach, father, husband and friend. And here is where I was particularly impressed with this book. Weldon manages to chronicle an amazing life journey and an inspirational story without veering into sentimental and saccharine musings.” – David Manuel Colon
