Small book, liked how the chapters were designed

A hard read coz, 1. Author reflection on self, time & again 2. Is philosophical sometimes 3. Literary references & impressive vocabulary 4. Description of medical conditions & procedures 5. May bring memories if you've cared for someone at hospital 6. Wrote this from death bed 7. A few recurring thoughts

Relatable in, 1. 1st(?) gen Indian-American 2. How a doctor's profession is a job 3. Simple & honest views

A very good read. Strong recommendation.

Left me with these questions, How do you judge a book written by someone from his death bed? How many untold stories could there be of people less fortunate? (Not as rich, no access to quality healthcare, not educated to better understand a disease, not a doctor (the quality of treatment gets better when one is either very rich or in the know-how of the business, not in usa, not with a family, not married etc)
