That question can be interpreted in many different ways- and the answer changes as the novel progresses. Physically he was fighting with his disease- Cancer. But mentally, Augustus Waters was battling with the idea of his death (he always believed that in life, he had to do something big to make it worth anything) and his identity. Because of his young age (seventeen) he had yet to figure out his life and as the novel progressed we see him detiorating slowly until the scene at the gas station where he loses his hold with everything for a moment with Hazel Grace. Until then he had played at being a hero, but from the moment his cancer returned, we saw his downfall, slowly.
In the book "The Fault in Our Stars" by John Green, Augustus Waters was diagnosed with osteosarcoma (a form of bone cancer) a year before the beginning of the events in the novel.
Yes Augustus lost his leg in real life
Augustus Waters was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, a type of bone cancer, which ultimately led to the loss of his leg.
The statue of Augustus of Prima Porta does not have a baby hanging from his leg. It has a small Cupid riding a dolphin next to his right leg. In mythology Cupid was the son of Venus. As the adoptive son of Julius Caesar, Augustus continued the personal religious cult started by Caesar by associating his family with the goddess Venus. He claimed a religious connection with Venus for himself. This explains the presence of a small Cupid by the leg of his statue.
sea stars don't mate. once a leg brakes off the leg will grow into another sea star.
You are thinking of the stature called the Augustus of Prima Porta and you are correct in thinking that the small fellow at the leg of Augustus is Cupid. He symbolizes the Julian family's lineage which was supposed to spring from Venus. Cupid was the son of Venus an he is riding on a dolphin, one of the favored animals of Venus.
