In this candid and moving memoir, join Dr. David Del Bosque on a colorful journey of triumphs, challenges, and self-discovery.
From his hometown of Alice, Texas, where Del Bosque's story begins, to the sun-drenched beaches of Santa Monica, the tranquil shores of Galveston, the charming town of Ennis, and the close-knit community of Avalon, this memoir is a vibrant exploration of the human experience.
Dr. David Del Bosque's journey is remarkable, marked by extraordinary challenges and inspiring resilience. Growing up in the barrio of Old Kingsville Road, resilience and perseverance were the key to success in life.
His story continues, from being on top of the world as a counselor in his mid-twenties at the University of Texas Medical Branch-Galveston to the program's end due to lack of funding. Dr. Del Bosque spent one year unemployed, struggling to find a job. Desperate, depressed, and flat-out broke, he persevered.
The journey also leads to suffering and surviving a heart attack and quadruple bypass surgery at 48, a defining moment that reshaped his perspective on life. Amid the challenges, Dr. Del Bosque found unexpected solace and companionship in the form of a shelter dog, who became his most amazing and loyal friend.
