Více o knize

When Dr. Courtney Burnett began to experience strange neurological symptoms while studying abroad in Thailand, the last thing she expected was to self-diagnose a malignant brain tumor.Difficult Gifts is an honest, friendly, and unique memoir written by a thirty-something woman who doesn't like memoirs, especially ones about cancer. But when life gave her an unexpected difficulty, she found the gifts of it worth sharing.This story is a fresh, upbeat, and vulnerable portrayal of a physician becoming a patient. Courtney takes us on a journey to Thailand and into the mind of a person facing a difficult gift: a gift we never want to receive, but one that can teach, change, inspire, and motivate us to live fully, beautifully, and gratefully- all the way to the end, whenever that may be.Winner of multiple awards, Difficult Gifts has been called a "life changing memoir to be read multiple times" that "teaches us how to live." - Goodreads Reviews
