Painful and poignant, I’m not sure if I’ve ever cried this much while reading before. It pushes one to reflect on who we are, how that evolves, and what we can do to make the most of the time we have.

This book caused me to reflect a lot on what relationships I would want to have with patients. I also feel i missed some of the meanings, so I look forward to rereading this book in the future.
