A Season in Hell: My Life in Medical Purgatory and Other Fun Times (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798885312646)

At 24, Dylan McSorley thought he had it all: a promising comedy career, and a girl who loved him and believed in his talent. It was 1989, and everything was funny--especially the clothes.

But the laughing stopped when McSorley was stricken with a mysterious illness and his life would never be the same. This mysterious disease wouldn't kill McSorley, it would just rob him of his life and he would lose everything he held dear, including the girl. Especially the girl.

All Dylan McSorley ever wanted to do was make people laugh and be with the girl he loved. But life had other plans for him.

What if you got sick and nobody believed you?

Partially inspired by actual events, A Season in Hell: My Life in Medical Purgatory & Other Fun Times tackles this very question. What follows is a harrowing yet sometimes funny tale of one man's struggle to reclaim his life while desperately seeking an answer to what medically happened to him.

It would be an odyssey that would take the Connecticut Yankee down many strange roads up and down the Eastern Seaboard and finally to Virginia, to find his birth mother and solve the original mystery of his life: his birth.
