Voices of the ER: True life stories from ER's front line

by Kathleen Kelly

Overview

I invite you to come with me on a journey through true, short stories spanning my career of over three decades as an ER nurse. Listen to the voices that echo from the worlds behind the doors of big city ERs and a country hospital nestled in the mountains of Arizona. Meet everyday angels in the form of nurses, doctors, patients, extraordinary people, and spirit guides who hover in the veil between birth and death. The ER is challenging with pressures and stresses. You can't survive if you don't find ways to laugh, to listen, and to allow yourself to be touched by the courage and strength of the human spirit.
The names of people and places are not their real identities. But their stories are rich, genuine, and will reach out to touch your heart.

I just set this book down after finishing it in just a couple sittings, and now I'm planning on buying a few more copies to give to some of my friends in healthcare. Author Kelly is such an amazing writer! I absolutely loved her use of metaphors and descriptive language. I loved how she seamlessly connected spiritual beings with their living relatives in the ER.
