About the author
Bhaskar Bora
195 books5 followersJust when life seemed rosy and sun was shining, he sustained a severe spinal cord injury in July 2019 following an operation, which left him with paralysis of both legs, a non-functioning right hand and long stay in the hospital, eventually leading to a forced medical retirement from his medical career and a wheelchair in place of a sports car. He had to undergo multiple operations but is now permanently disabled. Two months after his injury he was also diagnosed of cancer of the Thyroid for which he needed further operations.
With a family so young he could not afford to give up yet, so he had to re-learn walking (limited distance with crutches), writing, holding knife, fork and lots of other daily routines but most importantly had to retrain his mind to accept the new normal. However, these adverse life changing experiences made him into a person of faith, gratitude and inspiration.
Poorer financially but richer in experiences of life he is now a voice for the disabled and has written the book 'The Second Chance in Life' as an honest reflection of his life experiences to motivate people that every adversity can still be turned into an opportunity. That it is important to be filled with gratitude and appreciation for all the things that we take for granted. He also blogs on his website www.thesecondchanceinlife.com
In ‘The Second Chance in Life’ this self-confessed workaholic acknowledges the challenges and miracles that have influenced his life and, in a bravely honest style, shares how even your darkest days can be a springboard for positivity. How important acceptance and resilience is in turning adversities into opportunities. This book also shows the need of appreciating every small thing in life and not to take anything for granted. With various real-life examples and practical strategies, this book is an inspirational work for self-help and motivation. The book is to be launched worldwide on Amazon on 21st April 2022 and will be available to pre-order soon.
What the universe throws at us we cannot control but how we react to these life's curve balls define who we are.

memories of the road
Driving and/or riding from California to Ohio/Northern Kentucky was thoroughly enjoyed by myself and my family. The first time I actually remember it was when I was about 11 or 12 years old and I was map guide since I couldn’t drive yet. This brought back many memories as we made this drive quite often between where we lived in southern California to Ohio to my grandmothers in Ohio. Late in life, it where I lived in northern Kentucky. Loved stopping in the little restaurant especially for breakfast in the Ozark’s in Missouri. That’s where I fell in love with sausage, biscuits, and sausage gravy. Love it still today which I make myself whenever I get a hankering to have it. Loved this book because it brought back so many memories of what we did and the fun we had on these trips in the 60’s and 70’s and then later with my own kids in the 80’s and 90’s.
