Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The award-winning book that inspired an Apple Original series from Apple TV+ • A landmark investigation of patient deaths at a New Orleans hospital ravaged by Hurricane Katrina—and the suspenseful portrayal of the quest for truth and justice—from a Pulitzer Prize–winning physician and reporter “An amazing tale, as inexorable as a Greek tragedy and as gripping as a whodunit.”—Dallas Morning News After Hurricane Katrina struck and power failed, amid rising floodwaters and heat, exhausted staff at Memorial Medical Center designated certain patients last for rescue. Months later, a doctor and two nurses were arrested and accused of injecting some of those patients with life-ending drugs. Five Days at Memorial, the culmination of six years of reporting by Pulitzer Prize winner Sheri Fink, unspools the mystery, bringing us inside a hospital fighting for its life and into the most charged questions in health care: which patients should be prioritized, and can health care professionals ever be excused for hastening death? Transforming our understanding of human nature in crisis, Five Days at Memorial exposes the hidden dilemmas of end-of-life care and reveals how ill-prepared we are for large-scale disasters—and how we can do better.

Download or read book After One Hundred and Twenty written by Hillel Halkin and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deeply personal look at death, mourning, and the afterlife in Jewish tradition After One-Hundred-and-Twenty provides a richly nuanced and deeply personal look at Jewish attitudes and practices regarding death, mourning, and the afterlife as they have existed and evolved from biblical times to today. Taking its title from the Hebrew and Yiddish blessing to live to a ripe old age—Moses is said to have been 120 years old when he died—the book explores how the Bible's original reticence about an afterlife gave way to views about personal judgment and reward after death, the resurrection of the body, and even reincarnation. It examines Talmudic perspectives on grief, burial, and the afterlife, shows how Jewish approaches to death changed in the Middle Ages with thinkers like Maimonides and in the mystical writings of the Zohar, and delves into such things as the origins of the custom of reciting Kaddish for the deceased and beliefs about encountering the dead in visions and dreams. After One-Hundred-and-Twenty is also Hillel Halkin's eloquent and disarmingly candid reflection on his own mortality, the deaths of those he has known and loved, and the comfort he has and has not derived from Jewish tradition.

Book excerpt: Dr Kashyap Patel is a renowned oncologist in the US who works with terminally ill cancer patients. Through him, we meet Harry, who, after a life full of adventure, is diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. As he stares death in the face, Harry leans on Dr Patel, an expert in understanding the process of death and dying. His questions and fears are addressed through the stories of many other patients that Dr Patel has treated-from the young and vivacious to those who had already lived full lives, from patients who could barely afford their rent to those who had been wildly successful. What ties these stories together is the single thread of the lessons Harry learns along the way, lessons that ultimately enable him to plan his own exit from the world gracefully-dying without fear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My first experience with "death" happened on the night of July 2, 1984. Since then, books, movies, and television documentaries have popularized the term "near-death experience" to describe an event that has been experienced by millions of people who have been at death's door. But back in 1984 I was alone with my experience. I couldn't share it with anyone. From the book: "Coming back from death is a powerful and life-changing experience. Before I came back from death, I was told that I was coming back with a mission in life. My mission was not clearly defined for me at first, but I now find that each and every day it is being defined for me more clearly. The experience has set me upon a path of self-discovery and spiritual enlightenment that continues to provide me with glimpses into the afterlife--glimpses that I would now like to share with you. Prior to finding myself at death's door, I was not by nature inclined to share anything with anybody, but now I believe it is important that I share my experiences with you.

The news about the dreadful diagnosis came unexpectedly and immediately changed the life of the main character. A surgery, chemotherapy, and long months of rehabilitation. She had to overcome a lot--physical pain, betrayal by the man she loved, loneliness, and anxiety. But she never lost hope.100 Days Between Life and Death reads like a rollercoaster romance novel but it is not a book of fiction. It is based on a strikingly truthful real diary, the first page of which was written on a small piece of paper by a frightened, fragile woman on the day before the operation. All her thoughts, fears, and worries poured out on paper and turned into a survival guide, which now can help a lot of people who have lost hope in a similar situation get back to a happy life, like Lilia Koch did.This story is not about a disease. It is about coming back to oneself and discovering oneself, about losing and finding love. It's a genuine and honest diary, based on personal experience. One that needs to be shared. Reviews -- "You will suddenly start living. At first with her. Then on your own."-- "Who is she? Who is the woman you will be with for a couple of days and nights? Once you've picked up the book, it will be very hard to put it down. She is an ordinary person, and at the same time she is enchanting. She is strong, but vulnerable. She is reasonable, but overwhelmed with feelings and emotions. However, she is always genuine and opting for life."-- "I've always been attracted by books based on real events. Here it is not just realism, but the opportunity, the chance to rethink everything within us, to reevaluate our thoughts, emotions, intentions, as well as relationships. Having read this book, I wanted to live more deeply, to create, and to love!" -- "This book is like a breath of genuineness, truth, and sincerity. It's amazing that the reality is much more breathtaking and vivid there than in any intricate blockbuster. We can learn from it about love and how to fight, about devotion and 'the feeling of flow', the ability to be happy about small things and to create our own life journey. It's a lively, many-sided, and multilayered crystal, gleaming with all shades of emotion." -- "When I finished reading the most emotional and painful part, I reminded that I was not reading a novel, but a real story, the value of which is that Lilia Koch is real and all that happened in her real life; therefore, this story can and should be used to activate or strengthen the part of us that can object to the quiet whisper of destiny, 'Give up and die!'--and say instead, 'I believe in myself and I will live!'"
