“…fantastic stories, where I’m limited only by my imagination, not by the confines of this stupid disease.” National MS Society Leadership Conference, Denver, CO - November 2016Kevin Byrne shares unique insight into the world of a man condemned by both his body and mind. In these stories, on loan from his personal collection, chaos becomes a burden that is no longer his—weighted instead onto the characters he has created.Published by the NEVER STOP NEVER QUIT charitable foundation, 100% of the revenue earned from each sale will go directly to the fight against multiple sclerosis. Included in this book are: Five short stories  Chaos: a reflection, confession  Essence: a perspective on the divine  I’ll Never Breathe Again: a contemplation of past fears  Jimmy the Kid: a dark tale of rage (nature)  His Story, His Way: a dark tale of rage (nurture)…in abeyance (a novella)Christopher Baxter is a man recognized for his accomplishments: West Point graduate, medical doctor, combat veteran. Chris is also a man who struggles with the familiarity of circumstances he has carried his entire life. Nothing else changes; no mystical stories or tales of fantasy. What would you do if humanity stopped dying? As the world struggles to come to grips with dormancy, is one man–Chris Baxter–just another unwilling participant, the curse, or their salvation?The Completely Inconsequential Ramblings of a Condemned Man Inspired by a blog series first published in 2017, the never-ending struggle with multiple sclerosis is described through the symptoms they inflict on Kevin and his family, friends, and supporters in this ultimate fight.Never Stop… Never Quit…® NeverStopNeverQuit.com To donate to our efforts through Bike MS, please go to:Main.NationalMSSociety.org/goto/Eleanor
