The Powers Within is a book that was written purposed to enlighten and encourage the reader. When you read this book, the hope is that because of my experiences I incorporated into it you will look upon your career in the medical field with a new light and a new perspective. I hope you will find this book not only enlightening but educational through practical applications.
The many different situations you will find yourself in will be set on different levels; from heart breaking, to humorous, to exhausting. But this is the life of those who have careers in the medical field. Through it all, you will be able to walk away with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction that you were able to make a difference in a complete stranger's life.
By reading this book, I feel like you will have a better narrative of what your chosen field consists of: the good, the bad, and the ugly. You will face each day as an opportunity to do something dramatic that will change a person's life and if you do it right you will give that person (your patient) a new hope and possibly a new beginning. On the other hand, in hopeless situations you will be able to give the patient and family the support they will so gravely need.
