Excellent

This is a book, that once you start reading it you won't be able to stop until you are finished. My husband and I each read it in a day. A very touching and inspiring book. A must read!! You will want to share it with all your friends and family like we have done.

A Must Read

This book is a must read for everyone -- but especially for are searching for hope within their own lives. This book tells Michael Nolte's story of courage, and hope, and faith. Why was he spared from death, when it can only be described as miraculous that he was saved at all? I have never read another book that provides in such detail what one must endure while relying on others for extraordinary care found in a burn unit of a major hospital. The author of this book should not be alive today! He was saved by two passing motorists -- his angels. His life has been changed forever; as has the life of his wife and children, family, and friends. This is not a light book that one can read in an afternoon; it is a book to be experienced and cherished. It is a book that speaks to your heart because the man writing these words lived this pain that we rarely hear about. WE are fortunate that someone who has survived the horrors of such a accident is not only alive, but is able to use all of his talents to share his story with others. Everyone who has had a loved one in a burn unit must read this book so you can understand even a bit about the pain they have suffered. All nurses and doctors in hospital nursing must read this book to help them get inside the heads of their patients. Michael is a great story teller. He writes with charm, with passion, with clarity, with directness, and yes, even with humor! There are laugh-out loud moments, and moments that bring you to tears. I highly recommend this book to all. You will be grateful to have learned of one man's journey to recovery -- with the help of his family and friends.

A book for all health professionals

This is a book for everyone, but especially for students and people working in the health field. I am a nurse and I learned so much about the agony and pain of being in a burn unit for 2 months. I learned how important the wife/nurse was in getting Michael back to being himself. It is a miracle that Michael is alive. It took many many angels (the men who rescued him from the burning car, his wife/nurse, the health care professionals at the hospital, his daughters, his family and friends) over some years to get there. It teaches us how in a heartbeat our lives can change. Life is priceless and we should take care of our lives like a precious jewel. Thanks Michael for the lessons taught in this outstanding read.

Highly Inspirational

In this, his first literary work, Michael J. Nolte exposes the intimate realities of his life as it went from "Norman Rockwell" to a blazing inferno "in 1.8 seconds." A powerful and highly inspirational story of bitter pain and raw courage. A must read for anyone who has encountered suffering in their life.
