About this title

From the Inside Flap

Physicians are entrusted within the lives of their patients; lives woven from the threads of spirituality; touched by the mysteries of the universe, and filled with stories to tell. These stories can teach the secrets of a life filled with meaning, of wisdom, and of extraordinary journeys. They are sacred lessons. They are lessons that teach of a miraculous place and shine their light on the path that will take us there.“This book has all of the wisdom one could seek, told in a heart warming way that touched me deeply,” writes bestselling author Bernie Siegel, M.D. “When a book leads me to tears and joy, as this book has, I know it contains the essence of life. Read it and reap the benefits of wisdom from the experience of others, rather than your own rude awakening.” Wayne Dyer, the #1 New York Times best-selling author affirms the work as “stories to heal your life, beautifully presented.” William E. Hablitzel, M.D., a practicing physician and medical educator, shares the magic he has found in his patients’ lives. He balances details of the medical world with more humanistic elements such as the importance of friends and family, staying in the moment, and giving of one’s self. In an overworked and perpetually stressed society, his timely carpe diem message and life lessons will appeal to almost everyone.
