Press Release for "Five Years to Live"


Young man aims to make lasting impact on others, despite facing his final years

Based on a true story, Frank Zaccari’s “Five Years to Live” is a heartwarming read about making the most out of a difficult situation

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – In “Five Years to Live” (ISBN 1478196904), Frank Zaccari presents the troubling question of what you would do if you knew you only had a short period of time left in your life. Based on a real-life story, this novel follows a young couple as they begin to plan their life together before a devastating accident threatens to take it all away.


Recently engaged, Michael and Donna are a successful couple who are in love and having the time of their lives getting ready for their future together. But when Michael is in a tragic car accident, their plans have to be put on hold. Michael becomes a quadriplegic, and due to constant infections and multiple serious surgeries, doctors give him the prognosis that he has, at best, five years to live.

Despite the heartbreaking news, Michael battles through his injuries and puts his last five years to good use. Not letting his circumstances dictate his lifestyle or outlook on life, the young man does everything he can to make a positive, lasting impact on everyone he meets.

“This is a love story wrapped around the devastation and overwhelming therapies associated with severe spinal cord injury,” says Zaccari says. “The scary thing is that it can happen to anyone. It is the phone call everyone prays they will never receive.”

 

Zaccari believes “Five Years to Live” will resonate with readers who enjoy a powerful and moving true story. He also hopes that it will give readers a better view of what paralyzed individuals have to endure daily as they struggle to live independently.


“Five Years to Live” is available for sale online at Amazon.com and other channels.
