Not yet : a memoir of living and almost dying / Wayson Choy.
In 2001, Choy suffered a combined asthma-heart attack. As he lay in his hospital bed slipping in and out of consciousness, Choy heard the voices of his ancestors warning him that without a wife, he would one day die alone. And yet through his ordeal Choy was never alone; men and women from all cultures and ethnicities stayed by his side until he was well. When his heart failed him a second time, four years later, it was the strength of his bonds with these people that pulled Choy back to life.
