Description

Bed 12 by Alison Murdoch is a poignant and darkly comic account of what it's like to fight for someone's life. When Alison's husband falls into a life-threatening coma, she finds herself navigating the world of acute medicine, where machines beep and clatter, and medical staff come and go. As she struggles to cope with despair and heartache, Alison turns to Buddhism for guidance, finding unexpected relevance in this time of need. Over the course of a summer, she grapples with the unknown, seeking answers from family, friends, and even strangers who offer well-intentioned advice. This book is an astute and profound insight into how to cope with adversity, revealing the healing power that resides within each of us.
