I finished the fantastic #Pulitzer nominated #memoir WHEN BREATH BECOMES AIR today in one gulp. It’s the story of Paul Kalanithi, a #neurosurgeon resident who finds out he has terminal cancer in his early 30s and writes about the process of dying over the last few months of his life.
Yes, it’s a sad book, but it is also chock full of revelations on the reality of the surgical profession, #compassion for others and oneself, and finding quality in a life with an expiration date. #GreatBook
