Summary
Crossing the River Sorrow tells the story of one woman's plunge from a sheltered childhood in the 50s into the world of medicine, and her personal search for answers to questions about suffering. A single moment at the bedside of a paralyzed girl begins her journey on the River Sorrow, which takes her on a lifelong quest to come to terms with the problem of pain. More than medical case stories or tales of overcoming, Crossing the River Sorrow is a narrative told from the perspective an ordinary wife, mother, and nurse, as she lives her way to peace in the face of some of life's most troubling questions
