I read this book in one day. I couldn't put it down. It's hopefully heartbreaking. One of the themes that kept coming up that I resonated with is the way the healthcare system dulls the empathy of it's professionals. How it's easier to disconnect into the statistics and turn the patient into another number. I found his philosophy on medicine fascinating.
Our culture doesn't like to discuss death but this does in such a thoughtful way. It's real and honest. But it's also about living. And how living and dying are connected. Living with the knowledge you are dying.
