This is a collection of essays from the heart of physician Frank Boehm.
This thought-provoking and inspirational book deals with physicians, patients, their loved ones - and the complex challenges that relate to these individuals. The essays portray a medical profession that is sensitive, empathetic, spiritual, and compassionate.
You'll read about special moments in Dr Boehm's own life - such as watching a son and daughter go off to college, coping with the death of his parents, reveling in the birth of his granddaughter, and appreciating the healing that comes from joy. He also addresses topics such as courage, faith, depression, forgiveness, friendship, miscarriage, infertility, parenting, the nature of happiness, and much more.
This uniquely moving work will help you see that doctors are subject to the same stressed and pressures of life as everyone else, and that by gaining insight into the heart of one physician, you will gain insight into the heart of many.
