Synopsis

NeurosurgeonDr Mazda Turel has spent decades encountering the strange, moving and often unexpectedly funny edges of human life through his work.

In these pages you will find a wheelchair-bound woman whose devoted caregiver husband suddenly became a patient himself, a woman whose dog discovered her breast cancer before she did and a brilliant teen with a brain tumour who got his doctor to teach him to read MRI scans.

Through these unusual cases, Dr Turel comes to understand illness not just as a medical condition, but as a test of resilience,identity and the human spirit. Told with warmth, insight and quiet humour, these stories are as colourful and intriguing a they are deeply humane.
