“Throughout my profession I have seen Him at work almost daily bringing courage to a patient facing a major procedure, replacing their fear with peace upon entering the operating room; smoothing the way during difficult surgery; encouraging His children with a sense of His presence or providing comfort for anxious parents.”
Dave A. Walker, God in the ICU

Michael  Anthony
“Sometimes I go into the hospital and have to do surgery just as the sleeping pills begin to kick in. I spend the rest of the night pinching myself and throwing cold water on my face. At night I tell myself it’s not worth it. I tell myself I hate the Army and wish I’d never joined. I curse the war on both sides, American and Iraqi. I wish everyone would just...die...so that I could go home.”
Michael Anthony, Mass Casualties: A Young Medic's True Story of Death, Deception, and Dishonor in Iraq
