Unabridged Audiobook
As a pediatric nurse, having worked in the field for 20+ years and seen countless cases of mysterious illnesses and conditions that were difficult to explain, I was very drawn to hear a mother's perspective. While I lack the scientific data to back my claims, I can confidently state that physicians more frequently overlook the input of a caregiver or parent than they actually listen to them. This is especially true for Black families. I could not get past the narrator's monotone delivery of this remarkable story. I have a moderately long work commute 3 days a week, and like to listen to audiobooks while walking the dog, but I guess I'll have to read the physical book, because this was unbearable. I don't think that, just because a topic is serious and sensitive, it needs to be read like a eulogy for the last person who could have saved the world. I could feel my energy being sucked out of me with every minute I listened to her. It's a shame, the story is excellent.
