Description
From "JUST LET IT KILL ME" to Finding Good, Mike Thompson's inspirational story will empower you to live your best life.
After being diagnosed with cancer at the age of 10, Mike Thompson would endure four total cancers, two bone marrow transplants, more than 75 surgeries-including a 12-hour facial reconstruction-and more than six years in the fog of addiction to opioids. After being freed from the clutches of drug dependency, Mike took a leap of faith and set out to reclaim his life.
How? By focusing on finding good in everything.
As Mike puts it, "Finding Good is about living your best life by taking care of your mind and body, surrounding yourself with good people, and leaving the world better than you found it."
This heartfelt, unflinching memoir of resilience and redemption will empower you to find the good in your life, too. It's a reminder that even in the darkest moments, there is good to be found.
