Summary: Highly recomended
Comment: I`ve read many of Torey Haydens books. I wish there were more people in the world like her.
In this book, she describes working with three very different people. Two are children, and for the first time, she works with an elderly stroke victim in a geriatric ward.
Torey Hayden accurately describes how much she cares for each of these three indivduals, and her frustration at the beurocracy which threatens to (and does, at times) hamper the treatment of these equally important, individuals.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Poignant and touching true story
Comment: Don't be put off by the cheesy subtitles which always seem to accompany Hayden's books - she writes modestly and from the heart, sharing both the faults and the triumphs in her teaching. Best of all, she can write well: the tales of these three patients are neatly woven together and complement each other well. The ups and downs of her relationships with her patients are touching to read, and it is heartbreaking to see what some of them have been through. She captures beautifully the tone and expressions of the children - anyone who has spent time with young kids will respect the ease with which she brings them to life on the page.

Summary: An Amazing Read
Comment: This is the first Torey book I have read. It is well written and gives a very good insight to how she has worked with these three individuals to make their lives better and more fulfilling. The book keeps your interest and takes you on a very emotional and dramatic journey. Her patience and commitment to the individuals and families she works with is quite is examplary and occasionally detrimental to her own personal life. She is a very dedicated and fascinating lady who truly loves her work.
After completing the book I was compelled to buying more of her work as she sounds quite an amazing and talented individual. I am looking forward to reading more of her case studies.
