Resilience: Faith, Focus, Triumph |
|
By Alonzo Mourning with Dan Wetzel
Resilience. It's not just the title of Alonzo Mourning's memoir; it's what he's made of. Whether petitioning himself into foster care as an 11-year-old, making the dean's list at Georgetown University, becoming an NBA all-star center or returning to peak form after organ-transplant surgery, Mourning has shown enormous inner strength. His faith, his determination and his courage are what have driven and sustained him.
Mourning's return to basketball has inspired millions of patients suffering from kidney disease and living with dialysis, and organ donors everywhere. By sharing his experiences, he hopes to deliver a message of faith and fire, hurdles and hope, trust and triumph. Resilience is a story about the meaningful everyday lessons that he longs to share and about the things that truly matter in life.
