I had always prided myself on leading a disciplined lifestyle, with two hours of daily exercise, a balanced diet and a belief that these would be enough to keep a 58-year-old biological body shipshape, ready to weather any storm. Little did I imagine that I would one day drop anchor in a hospital bed.

I have been an avid coffee drinker since I was 15, when I first discovered its magical powers during sleepless nights spent preparing for my Class 10 board exams.
