Do unsettling truths bring harsh judgment? They do, but the price of denial
is steep.

D.K. Sanz’s story begins in the drug-infested New York City streets
of Woodside, Queens, during the tumultuous HIV/AIDS pandemic of the 80s and
90s. It offers a glimpse into how a now often-overlooked pandemic impacted
Sanz’s nuclear family.

From her earliest days, Sanz was the easily forgotten stranger, always a
little out of sync with the rest of the world—a tough but naive kid
and aspiring writer.  Her triumph over illness and addiction includes
amusing anecdotes and nostalgic, heartwarming memories.

Grateful to be Alive delves deep into Sanz’s confessional
self-sabotage, self-destruction, and the harrowing downward spiral she
almost didn’t survive. Her never-before-told story ranges from
recklessness and impudence to empathy, forgiveness, and love.

D.K. Sanz has since published several books, primarily poetry but also a
novel, and she continues to work on sequels and an all-new fantasy series.
You’ll find some of her poetry at the end of this book.

Whether struggling or not, you will find Grateful to Be Alive is a story of
hope, of defying insurmountable odds, finding joy, and a gradual transition
toward authenticity and becoming the person Sanz always wanted to be.
