When I was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer, it made me realize what life is all about. One of my favorite books is the novel 'Emmanuel's Dream' by Laurie Ann Thompson. This story follows Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah, a Ghanaian immigrant in America who works hard to achieve his dream of becoming a doctor. Emmanuel's father counsels him to follow God's way and pray for every step he takes along the way into becoming a medical doctor. The book is based on true events that happened to Emmanuel along his journey.

In the middle of a summer night, Emmanuel's mother took him and his sister from their home in Ghana to a place they had never seen before. They were taken to America where they would live with their father, who was waiting for them at the airport with a new life ahead of them.

Emmanuel's Dream is the inspiring story of Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah, a man who found himself on the wrong side of history and yet transformed his life. He endured one of humanity's greatest tragedies: slavery in the Transatlantic Slave Trade. Years later, he escaped from a life of never-ending work and violence to live an extraordinary life with both dignity and joy.

Emmanuel Ofosu Yeboah was born in Kumasi, Ghana in 1945. He dreamed of becoming a star singer like his childhood idol, Miki Dora. But when he was only 15 years old, he fell off the roof of his late mother's shop. The accident left him paralyzed and unable to walk or talk.
