‘If you fall far enough, it’s hard to know when you hit bottom. The air gets sucked out of you on the way down’.
This is the uplifting story of a determined sailor refusing to give up his dream against massive odds. Just as he and his family had decided to sail a circuit of the Atlantic for a year, John is struck down with heart failure. Devastated that his plans are thwarted, he endures seven operations in eight months as procedure after procedure fails. Finally, he has to endure open heart surgery, and immediately makes plans for his ‘trip’.
