This is the story of a father (Aviran) in a crazy race against time in order to save the life of his son (Ariel) who is suffering from kidney disease. The book describes the journey past two for 16 years towards achieving kidney healthy for Ariel battling for his life in personal sacrifice, frequent visits to hospitals and meetings with the makers of magic, rabbis hoping to get a signal or give him and his son a little rest.
