Out of all health workers, it is interesting that doctors often get the worst reviews. <br />Speaking of reviews -- I am so impressed by the breadth, number and frequency of your book reviews here, Kate!!<br />Sending all of you much love.

I'm so sorry about your mother, but I guess those last few years become a precious time, even though they are so hard.<br />Thankfully my dad is doing much better.

It was wrenching to see my intelligent, able mother treated like a child because her body no longer worked. All the best from SusanSusan Greenhttp://www.veritysparks.comnoreply@blogger.com
