I was born in London, England, the only boy of a family of five. My education and travels have taken me to Lagos, Nigeria, Lancaster, England, Ontario, Canada, and the United States of America. I live with my two sons in Scottsdale, Arizona, where I run a financial planning business. I enjoy motorcycling, sports, and traveling. I attend North Phoenix Baptist Church in Phoenix, and I am involved in an outreach program known as Stephens Ministry. The book is a true inspirational story. It details the extraordinary journey my family traveled when my 38yr old wife and mother of our two children, ages 3 and 6, was unexpectedly diagnosed with terminal brain cancer. It talks about our dreams, hopes, fears, successes and challenges and how our faith in God led to spiritual victory. The main question I considered was how a family that appeared to have it all- success, love, peace and harmony could survive a sudden and tragic turn of events and yet maintain a sense of hope. The great news is that we did, through faith, love, courage and perseverance.
