The Diary of a Dying Man : How to Prepare for and Cope with Life and Old Age

The author is 96. He was an educator for 33 years, retiring in 1984. As you read the book, you will sense that the 'speaker' is still a teacher who is not only telling you a story, but also cautioning you about what lies ahead as you too face the inevitable challenges associated with aging, how to deal with them, and how being fit helped him survive major difficulties. The Diary of a Dying Man is a perfect example of the saying that truth is stranger than fiction. In fact, much of what happened to the author is unbelievable. Basically, it’s about a survivor, a man who is naively generous to a fault. Despite the traumas his generosity causes, he feels that, in each instance, he did the right thing. While the book has a happy ending, be prepared to shed some tears along the way.
