Summary

Fr Tony Coote was just 53 years old in February 2018 when he was diagnosed with motor neurone disease. Just a few short months later, he found himself confined to a wheelchair. But rather than succumbing to the darkness that threatened to overwhelm him in the days after his diagnosis, he drew on his powerful faith and unwavering belief in life and found a way to light, hope and acceptance. 

From growing up in Fairview, to serving in the dioceses in Ballymun and later Mount Merrion and Kilmacud, and his charity work while in UCD, Fr Tony takes us on the journey of his life and shows us how, through this devastating illness, he came to know the true meaning and nature of God's love. 

Sadly, Tony passed away on the 28 August 2019, but his memoir and his message of hope, strength and unwavering faith live on. 

Live While You Can is the inspiring, life-affirming account of finding joy in dark times and living every day in the now.
