The In Between

 


In The In-Between, Hadley Vlahos, a young hospice nurse, recounts the most impactful experiences she’s had with the people she’s worked with—from the woman who never once questioned her faith until she was close to death, to the older man seeing visions of his late daughter, to the young patient who laments that she spent too much of her short life worrying about what others thought of her—while also sharing her own fascinating journey.


 The book is written with profound insight, humility, and respect. The In-Between is a heartrending memoir that shows how caring for others can transform a life while also offering wisdom and comfort for those dealing with loss and providing inspiration for how to live now.  [The preceding is part of a blurb on the Barnes and Noble website - and I agree with it.  I listened to the Audible.com version (read by the author and it was a great pleasure as well as a valuable learning opportunity).


I would never have stumbled upon The In Between had not T and J B. given me a copy.  I am very grateful to them!
