Resumen del Editor

Twenty-five years in the ER could become a résumé for despair, but for best-selling author Dr. Robert D. Lesslie, it's a foundation for inspiring stories of everyday angels - friends, nurses, doctors, patients, and even strangers who offer love, help, and support in the midst of trouble.

The ER is a difficult and challenging place to be. Yet the same pressures and stresses that make this place so challenging also provide an opportunity to experience some of life's greatest wonders and mysteries. Dr. Lesslie illuminates messages of hope while sharing fast-paced, captivating stories about discovering lessons from the ER frontline, watching everyday miracles unfold, holding on to faith during tragedy and triumph, and embracing the healing balm of hope.

For anyone who enjoys true stories of the wonders of the human spirit, this immensely popular book is a reminder of the power of angels.

The Title

There was no part of the book I disliked, except for the length. I wish there had been more chapters.

Excellent

This book tells it like it is working Emergency Medicine.i would recommend this for anyone.

interesting and inspiring -ER and being human

All sort of charactets pop in to 5he ER- the Doctor has a chance to see humanity at its best- and worst.

Amazing

I loved it, very very good! The stories where well told. I will definitely recommend this book to anyone.

Inspiration on the go

I loved listening to this in the car. The stories painted heartfelt pictures of patient and medical staff interactions. I enjoyed the faith filled moments. I do have to say I was surprised that the narrator was a hired reader. I thought perhaps it was Dr. Lesslie himself. I found the reading a little bit too over enunciated and somewhat stilted. It wasn’t bad, it just really wasn’t natural. For example, every time there was an abbreviation such as “ER” the narrator read the letters so slowly and clearly it was as if he thought they might be misconstrued—like a term from a foreign language. Some of the poignant and moving moments were also read without as much emotional nuance as expected. And so, I would say an enjoyable text, but marred a bit by a less than practiced reader.

Good Tales

Interesting tales from the ER. As a 15 year volunteer EMT I found these stories to be interesting as our task with patients ends in the ER so this is the next step of the patients' journey. Scripture reference was an added bonus.

As a nurse for 54 years, I applaud your effort to paint a true picture of Emergency Medicine!

An excellent depiction of how it really is in the Emergency Department! I don’t know how you could handle it without a spiritual background and a sense of humor! Thank you for being there and thank you for sharing your insights with us!

Amazing!

Amazing story of love and care! Great book and also a great voice for the reader. Will keep you gripped.

One of the best!

This book was one of the best! The medical stories were very interesting and the narration was good too. Highly recommend.

This was a GREAT READ!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I love listening to the stories and it gave me a new perspective on the care, the men and women who have entered this "thankless" but exceedingly rewardable and honorable profession go through. I thought the narrator gave the right amount of voice inflections. The book was thoroughly entertaining and humorous at times. I DO want to state that the book is not for everyone. If you're turned off by Dr. Lesslie's Christian beliefs, this book is NOT for you but if this is NOT an issue, you will come to enjoy it just like I did.
