Medical emergencies can sneak up on one. This is what happens to Junger, though he did have clues that he dismissed, which too many of us do. Life threatening internal bleeding, he only had a ten percent chance of survival.

Without going into detail, I’ll just say that I more in common with this scenario, than I would like. So, he details his experience in hospital, his recovery, and expresses the gratitude he feels in those who saved his life. He also shares the times previously that he came close to death, he was in Afghanistan, and those who didn’t make it. What he saw when he was dying and he also tells of others who have had near death experiences.

Interesting book and a deeper dive into what happens as we are dying.
