Desperately Seeking Cereal: A Travelogue

Alone, broke, and abandoned by family and friends, this true story relates how Michael Mangold MD survived being homeless in Nicaragua by using his wits and at times doing the "unthinkable." With help from unexpected sources like a Roman Catholic priest in Esteli and Mormon missionaries in Leon, Desperately Seeking Cereal also describes how those who are entrusted to serve the needy and desperate often do so at a cost. If at all. The book is a sequel to My Worst Thanksgiving Ever and the fourth in Dr. Mangold's "Bridges" series. It is a tale of ugliness and beauty, of evil and good, and how all are to be found in the least expected sources.
