The Burn

About the Book

The men in the Michael family are notoriously known for ignoring discomfort, not seeking medical help willingly, and having a false sense invincibility. Rod Michael got tired of denying the pain of the burn. He finally listened to his wife and followed the advice of a close friend by making an appointment to see a cardiologist. As a result of the ensuing bypass surgery, he became humbled by a newly acquired sense of vulnerability. His manuscript is a plea to all men to seek and receive medical help without a fight. More importantly, do not wait until your back is against the wall. Pray to God, and, as the comedian Steve Harvey once said, “Don’t trip. He ain’t through with you yet.”
