Peter's nemesis. At Barcelona Olympics in 1992 he was bitten by a
sand fly and contracted a terminal illness destroying his bone
marrow and internal organs. Having both HIV and Leishmania, meant
certain death within 20 months. However, now 21 years later past

combination treatment of over 920 doses of chemotherapy and other
similar drugs. Side effects of severe vision impairment and
profound deafness, from the medication became two of the
uncertainties of this chronic illness. His Art of Wellness may be
part of his longevity. In this story he shares his rise on the
International Equestrian circuits to his attempt to be the first in
the world participating in the experiment to attempt to kill these
parasites. Peter leaves you in no doubt of his heroic struggle to
live and tells of the lessons he learned during this adventure. A
powerful romp, this book is full of inspiration, humour and
practiced wisdom.
