Produktbeschreibung
"Upon completing my nursing degree and gaining employment, what followed was truly a humbling and horrendous learning experience. " The train wreck that was the start of her second career was far from anything she had experienced. The author, a software engineer, took a decade detour into nursing. Her perspective is unusual because she didn't begin her nursing career quite like other nurses. Unlike software engineering, nursing placed her central to the core of the human condition. This short memoir is about a nurse confronting her own fears and insecurities - as she recounts her patients' remarkable journeys of struggle, triumph, and loss. These unforgettable stories were selected because they are interesting medically, but also they offer a deeper insight into human vulnerability and trust.
Autorenporträt
Ms. Moore lives on the coast in a beach party town with her partner and two loud, disturbed cats. A former software engineer and registered nurse, Ms. Moore is now pleasantly retired and enjoying the serene but often wild outdoors - forever dedicated to a relaxing lifestyle. When she isn't writing, she is caring for injured wildlife through volunteering at the SPCA wildlife rehabilitation facility, and running some painful yet lively half-marathons competitively around the state. Upon finishing her masters in software engineering, JD's first career in programming was at various tech companies in Silicon Valley. While she enjoyed programming for nearly 20 years, she wanted to do something different as she edged towards midlife. JD decided on something completely foreign to her: a career in nursing. She received her nursing bachelor's degree and registration after moving to her husband's native country.
