Produktbeschreibung

'Parables of a Paramedic' is a memoir about the author's experience as a paramedic and what it taught him about life, death, God, faith, and spirituality. The book takes readers on an eye-opening journey through patient interactions on emergency scenes and critical care runs. The author shares what he learns from patients of the five major faiths: Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism and beyond. This is an unforgettable book that chronicles the pressing challenges we face such as disease, trauma, pathophysiology, aging, social ills, moral and ethical degradation, a broken health care system, neglect, and the unseen. Everything in this book is true and backed up by the author's notes that were kept in a journal for over three decades. Through this memoir, the author examines spirituality, religion, and the life-changing observations of being a paramedic. Will his own faith endure - and what can he learn from others? In this unforgettable book, the author not only learns more about his own faith, but he also is able to work with another person's faith during times of suffering and end-of-life care.

Autorenporträt

Thomas Valentini was born in Springfield, MA. He was raised in a small neighboring town, providing care for his brother Doug, who has Cerebral Palsy. Taking care of his brother, he learned by experience with his parents, and then chose to attend a local college and become a paramedic. In his small city and surrounding towns, he worked as one of the few medics who thrived at attending to and caring for patients around the clock. In his writing, he transports readers to those unforgettable experiences. He shares everything he learned from his patients and their faiths. Being a paramedic is a large part of his life, but Thomas also enjoys spending his free time exploring small towns or hiking the countryside.
