Description
At nine, O'Leary survived a house fire with burns on 100 percent of his body. Doctors didn't expect him to make it through the night. But he made it through five months of healing in the hospital, and years of excruciating rehabilitation as he struggled to regain mobility and control of his body. O'Leary says that it changed him for the better-- and that if he had it to do all over again, he wouldn't change a thing. Now he shares reflections on the seven life-giving choices he made that ensured his survival and his ability to ignite a radically inspired life. -- adapted from jacket
