Kate Domaille (2001) theory

every story ever told can be fitted into one of eight narrative types. Each of these narrative
types has a source, an original story upon which the others are based.

I believe my story fits into the:

 
Orpheus

The loss of something personal, the gift that is taken away, the tragedy of losss or the journey which follows the loss.

I believe it fits into this narrative type due to the fact he believes he is about to lose his life and this gift of life is taken away, but my narrative turns towards the end where this is flipped and he still has this gift of life and nothing personal is taken away.
