So Good! I loved this book. There are a handful of gory stories that made my stomach flip flop, but being married to a doctor, it reinforced some of my husbands' feelings on several of the same issues. Doctors are human beings, not Gods. They have their bad days, too. It is frustrating for them as well to not be able to find a miracle to help people get better.
It was a really great read. I'd recommend it to anyone.
