Khalil Rafati went to Los Angeles in the 1990s and had it all. He was working with Hollywood movie stars and legendary rock musicians, but it wasn't long before he found his way into the dark underbelly of the City of Angels.

When he hit rock bottom - addicted to heroin and cocaine, overtaken by paranoia and psychosis, written off by his friends and family - he grabbed a shovel and kept digging. At 33, Khalil was 109 pounds, a convicted felon, high school dropout, and homeless junkie living on the infamous Skid Row in downtown L.A.

So how does someone with nothing, who feels like they deserve nothing, and who just wants to end it all turn their life around?

I Forgot to Die is an incredible true story of pain, suffering, addiction, and redemption - and how one man ultimately conquered his demons and wrote himself a new life story.

Amazing story told beautifully by the author. It takes a lot to put it all out there so humbly and to walk down a road that I am sure is easier to leave in the past, but I am even more sure his words, lessons and humility will touch many struggling with addiction...so for that it was well worth it. This story personally hit home for me from a different perspective... from that of one who has struggled to understand addiction and watched it take those I love. It has given understanding to the struggles and humanized this epidemic of which is stealing souls, so for that I am grateful.

Moving.

I originally bought the book because I thought it was about an drug user
turned ultra runner. It isn't but it is so much better. The belief in God and faith in others and himself is amazing. I don't think I've listened to a book start to finish this quickly. I'm not a review writing kinda guy but this deserves all the praise. So glad I accidentally bought the book!
