Samenvatting:

“Kissed by Death” is the true account of a life marked by suffering, survival, and an encounter with grace at the edge of eternity.

Born with life-threatening conditions and surviving 27 major operations, Dylan Verdun Sullivan’s early years were shaped by hospitals, fear, and a body that refused to follow the rules. As he stepped into adulthood, pain evolved into trauma, addiction, rejection, and years of searching for meaning.

At eighteen, meningococcal disease pulled him to the edge of death. In the quiet of a coma, he experienced a spiritual awakening that redirected the entire course of his life. What followed was a long and honest rebuilding — through faith, resilience, community, and the slow healing of old wounds.

Kissed by Death explores the full arc of that journey: childhood battles, bullying, emotional collapse, martial-arts discipline, sobriety, creative rebirth, and the discovery of purpose through fire, story, and grace.

This memoir is raw, vulnerable, and deeply reflective — an invitation to witness a life reshaped not by perfection, but by persistence, faith, and the transformative power of survival.
