About This Book

"Upon completin g my nursing degree and gaining employment, what followed was truly a humbling and horrendous learning experience."

The train wreck that was the start of her second career was far from anything she had experienced. The author, a software engineer, took a decade detour into nursing. Her perspective is unusual because she didn't begin her nursing career quite like other nurses. Unlike software engineering, nursing placed her central to the core of the human condition.

This short memoir is about a nurse confronting her own fears and insecurities - as she recounts her patients' remarkable journeys of struggle, triumph, and loss. These unforgettable stories were selected because they are interesting medically, but also they offer a deeper insight into human vulnerability and trust.
