Overview

At twenty-six, Miles is certain life is a straight fairway-until he collapses mid-swing and wakes to words no one expects: seizure and brain tumor. Overnight, his calendar fills with surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. He moves back home, trades plans for pill schedules, and watches friends speed into careers, weddings, and children while he stands still. Then his oncologist urges a choice that feels anything but normal: bank sperm before treatment. Embarrassed but trusting, Miles says yes-protecting a future he can't yet imagine.

What follows is a story about building a new normal one day at a time: chipping golf balls ten feet at a time, finding love in a chemo-era friendship, and discovering that control lives in the present, not the what-ifs. Years later, three small hands on his shoulders prove how wise that yes was.

Tender, funny, and fiercely hopeful, Control the Now is a modern coming-of-age about illness, love, and the simple courage of choosing today.
