"But I stay another minute, and close my eyes for a while and listen. Betty has a wonderful story. And if I listen hard enough, I stop seeing a frail old woman alone on a hospital trolley, and instead watch a young woman in a dress made from parachute silk, dancing with her new husband, Stan."

I could not put this book down - it reads almost like a story and is full of fast-paced drama alongside heart-warming recollections of patients. Kindness oozes from Watson's writing and you can really feel the love she had for her profession along with the care she gave to her patients. A bittersweet book which helps you better understand one of the most underestimated and underapreciated professions.
