Dr. Siva Murugappan conquered Mount Kailash, standing at a staggering 21,778 feet above sea level. However, just months later, he faced an even greater challenge—one he never saw coming. While performing a medical procedure, he suffered a stroke that shattered everything he had built. What followed was not a story of defeat but a remarkable battle.
Co-authored with his wife, Dr. Prema Samy, Frontiers: The Journey of Two Surgeons Through Stroke is more than a memoir; it’s a gripping story of perseverance, determination, and love. As a skilled surgeon, Dr. Murugappan was trained to adhere to medical protocols. However, when the system failed to accommodate his relentless drive, he had no choice but to forge his own path to recovery.
In Canada, no doctor had ever reclaimed their medical license post-stroke. Yet Dr. Murugappan refused to accept this bleak reality. His rehabilitation became not only a quest for recovery but also a movement, demonstrating that a stroke survivor’s life can transcend limitations.
From triumph to tragedy and an unbreakable will to return to medicine, Frontiers is a must-read for anyone who has ever fought against the odds. It’s a testament to resilience, a love story tested by hardship, and a call to defy expectations. Whether you’re a survivor, a caregiver, or someone chasing a dream others deem impossible—this book will inspire you to conquer your own frontiers.
