At thirty-seven years old, Steve Nalbandian received news that would forever change the course of his life: a diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic leukemia. One year later, his young son Darren was diagnosed with autism.
What followed was not simply a story about illness or hardship, but a twenty-five-year journey through uncertainty, fatherhood, marriage, faith, perseverance, and learning how to keep moving forward when life rarely unfolds according to plan.
In 25 Years on Borrowed Time, Steve shares an honest and deeply personal account of raising a family while navigating chronic illness, becoming a full-time advocate for a child with special needs, and discovering unexpected moments of humor, gratitude, and joy along the way.
Through treatment cycles, career instability, setbacks, victories, heartbreak, and hope, this memoir explores what it means to keep showing up for the people you love-even when tomorrow is never guaranteed.
Honest, heartfelt, and deeply human, 25 Years on Borrowed Time is a story about resilience, faith, family, and discovering that even borrowed time can become a gift.
