The foreword, written by the author, H. M. Gooden, is something beautiful, and gives the starting note of what promises to be an emotional literary journey for us readers, and we become sure that, by the end of this same journey we will see aspects of life that we might have ignored or not known to this date.

Before we start though, I want to point out that the writer is, a medic/nurse with decades of experience and that she has written this book to honor lost patients, which is something interesting to read, because it’s not everyday that we read or even hear about the real experiences of medics when it comes to their patients and how they see the whole process, so, this is a very rare type of book.

The book is a collection of short stories and poetry. But these short stories aren’t made up, but tellings of experiences passed on to the reader in a fiction-like manner with H. M. Gooden’s light, soft narrative. As per the poems, you can also feel the softness, the love, the lightness of the mood through the pen of H. M. Gooden. It’s something delightful and emotional. This book is so pure, so full of love that is shown word by word, it’s amazing.
