Dr. Allen Lycka had a thriving world renowned cosmetic dermatology practice. Life was good. Until that fateful day in 2003 when his world class neurologist used that bone chilling, bad news sure-to-come phrase "are you sitting down" and coldly delivered the devastating news that his diagnosis was ALS, best known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. He was given 6 months to live. It's now nearly two decades later and you get to hear the inspiring interview about not only how he survived this diagnosis, but thrived despite it. In his book The Secrets to Living a Fantastic Life: Two Survivors Reveal the 13 Golden Pearls They've Discovered, Dr. Lycka reveals how his courage & determination to challenge that diagnosis led him with his co-author (who had a near fatal kidnapping) to the blueprint of life success he discovered.
