"I checked this book out from the hospital library. She was a Pediatrician who later worked with people with cancer....helping them find wholeness. It was fascinating how she weaved her grandfather's wisdom on life , her own suffering with Chrohn's disease to help heal others emotionally. Her perspective was different but she sounds like a person I would feel safe with and would encourage me to grow."
"This book has been my favorite book of all times. Of all the books I read throughout college, and books I read as a young adult starting a new career, of all the books that have come across my path as a middle-aged adult. . . this one takes the cake! I laughed, I cried, I contemplated, I remembered, I learned, I loved . . . it and the author! What insight, what depth, what passion, what a life!"
"My Grandfather's Blessings is a book with lots of little stories that make you stop and think about the importance of life and how to look at it a little differently.
The author Rachel Naomi Remen is doctor who has done just about it all from the ER to being a pediatrician to now counseling patients with cancer. She has seen it all and her outlook is very different from the average person because of her many experiences as a doctor.
This book was good. I didn't like reading it cover to cover in a month's period. To me this is a type of book that you can leave on your nightstand and read one short story a couple times a week. Or as a coffee table book at the doctor's office, because you can read short story and be satisfied."
