Chasing My Cure: A Doctor's Race to Turn Hope Into Action; A Memoir by David Fajgenbaum

---

When I first started reading Chasing My Cure by David Fajgenbaum, I was a little skeptical. It seemed a little too technical for a memoir to me. But the more I read, the more I was pulled into his story. The ups and downs, the breakthroughs and falling apart - his story had my heart all over the place. Fajgenbaum managed to convey his story in a way that shows both the negative and positive sides of the medical system and what can be done to improve the lives of many. His fight to save not only himself but also others is so inspirational. I'm so glad I pushed through the beginning because it was definitely worth it.
