Josh komen is an incredible young man.
At 23-years-old he was set to wear the black singlet, a West Coast athletics star on the rise.

However, in a race to the Commonwealth Games the finish line never came as Josh was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia.

Hitting rock bottom Josh thought about taking his own life before finding inner-strength and deciding to battle the illness. He chronicles this heartbreaking and painful beyond belief, journey through heart attacks, reoccurring cancer, stem cell transplants and much more. But this is a story of hope and of love and of never giving up. The story of a how a young mans love for his mum saw him through the toughest times and eventually his amazing journey back to health, finding love along the way. You will be inspired to live your life to the full when you hear this story. His gratitude and love for life is infectious and he will leave you heartwarmed and motivated to live every day. You can find out  more about Josh at https://joshkomen.com/ where you can also buy his book "The Wind At My Back"
