Synopsis

One Way to Live was written at a time when Dr Tehemton Udwadia knew that he had just a few months left to live. It is partly a personal memoir recounting about his youthful romance and the influence of his mother and heartfelt anecdotes about his friends and family, and partly his own medical journey, including the story behind the setting up of Center for Minimal Access SurgeryTraining (ceMAST)-perhaps his greatest achievement.

The last few couple of chapters of this book were written at a time when Dr Udwadia was on ventilator support; the second and final epilogue was dictated by him from a hospital bed at a time when he could barely speak. He passed away on 7 January 2023. It was life well-lived.
