The Man Who Refuses to Die: The Amazing and True Life Story of Henry Lee
The Man Who Refuses To Die is an amazing story of the resilience and rebound of a man named Henry Lee. Henry was born in America during the Great Depression and later, as a child, returned to China with his family as their struggles crossed the sea with them. Because of the Japanese invasion of China and later the Chinese Communist's domination of the area, his father was imprisoned and his mother committed suicide to evade capture. Henry was smuggled out of Hong Kong and back to the United States. His hardships continued after being diagnosed with a life threatening disease and quarantined in a U.S. Public Health Service Hospital in Louisiana. With unfaltering tenacity, he persevered and not only learned fluent English, but also achieved degrees from Louisiana State and Tulane Universities. He worked and retired as a civil servant for the State of Louisiana. At the age of 87, Henry is now a patient of a hospice program. His life struggles and successes are chronicled here with direct input from Henry himself.
