An inspiring wake-up call to embrace and cherish every moment of life. Living While Dying is a blend of adventure and resilience -- a guiding light for others facing life's hardest challenges with unwavering strength and optimism.

Eight years ago, Thom's life took an unexpected turn with a prostate cancer diagnosis. Initially, he believed surgery to remove his prostate would cure him, but the cancer had already advanced to stage III, spreading beyond the gland. At the time, he believed he was already living life to the fullest, but facing a potentially limited lifespan changed his perspective entirely.

From the initial signs of rising PSA levels to the life-altering biopsy in 2016, the book chronicles Thom's journey to active living and traveling. Despite the diagnosis, Thom has embraced life and aimed to give as much as he has received from it.

After a period of remission, the cancer returned in 2019, and despite these challenges, Thom has continued to lead a fulfilling life, traveling and volunteering. Now 67, he faces the realities of stage IV cancer with determination and hope, aiming to surpass survival expectations and maintain a quality life. His thirst for adventure is taking him from Antarctica to South America to an awe-inspiring circumnavigation of Australia. Gazing into the future, Thom's ambitions are limitless.

Living While Dying is a deeply personal narrative about living fully in the face of illness. It sheds light on the daily challenges of living with both the disease and its treatments and explores how it impacts those close to individuals facing this diagnosis.

While this isn't a how-to guide on battling cancer, Thom shares his journey of living with it, emphasizing the importance of a positive outlook and truly living life, not merely existing with the disease. Through his inspiring story, Thom hopes to ignite a spark in readers, encouraging them to seize every moment, whether navigating their own cancer journey or supporting a loved one on that challenging path.
