Critics Review

‘Take the time to read this book. It’s worth it!’ Professor Stephen Westaby, author of Fragile Lives

I loved this book. It brings anonymous ‘health care professionals’ to life, showing their real thoughts, emotions and reactions to the people they see. I hope showing the lifelong impact our patients can have on us helps people to be assured that we who serve them are deeply touched by their stories, appreciate their confidence in us and value their trust. If we occasionally struggle to rise to their expectations it’s not because we are indifferent or unkind, but because we, too, are human’ Kathryn Mannix, author of With the End in Mind
