All She Left Behind Quotes

“But most of all, being a doctor was about human warmth and understanding, about healing. Her medical book spoke of incarn, a word that meant “the growing of new flesh.” That referred not just to the human body but to a person’s soul. Listening with the heart grew new flesh; being present for another’s pain, even if one couldn’t stop it, brought healing. Healing also meant admitting that sometimes allopathic and homeopathic answers stood beyond their reach. Then a practitioner must create paths toward acceptance of mortality and do it with grace. It was the perfect venue for a woman’s place. Women ought not be left behind.”
