I read every word of this collection with delight.Dr. Samuel Shem, Author, House of GodThe collection is evidence of a lively mind that even medicine can't destroy.Dr. Brian Goldman, Host of CBC Radio's White Coat Black ArtMedical school is a wild ride. You're asked to do things you would rather not do. You say things you wish you'd never said. But you also grow. And make mistakes. And learn from your mistakes. Then you grow even more. Somewhere along the way, in the chaos of it all, you transition from being a redundant, observing appendage, to a useful, contributing member of society. You become a doctor. But you can also lose part of yourself. Your empathy. Compassion. Ability to love. In 'Humanity Emergency, ' Dr. Sarah Fraser has published a collection of poetry she wrote as a medical student. The poems speak to the 'emergency' for more humanity in medicine, and in the world more generally.The time is now. The person is you. It is an emergency. Go.
