Everyone has an idea about this – that things happen by chance, or that God is involved, or that you’re the one moving the plot forward. But having an idea about these matters, what Bruce Miller calls Fortune, is not the same as asking the question. After studying the mystery for decades, Bruce confronts the question head-on when his business and his wife both collapse within the hour on New Year’s Eve. Without warning, his wife, Karen, suffers a metastatic brain tumor with stage 4 lung cancer, while Bruce finds himself without means at an unemployable age. Bruce and his wife struggle to reboot their lives as they navigate the world of doctors, gurus, healers, and wheeler dealers. A deep metaphysical inquiry, mixed with an intimate love story and a mind-expanding backstory, Fortune explores the mysteries of relationships, healing, and personal triumph — all with a healthy dose of Bruce’s mystical wit and native Chicago humor.
