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 his expiry date, Peter explores why he is the only person in the world to live thislong. Over the past 18 years Peter had a 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.
