Dying Was the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me

Book excerpt: Physicians are entrusted within the lives of their patients; lives woven from the threads of spirituality; touched by the mysteries of the universe, and filled with stories to tell. These stories can teach the secrets of a life filled with meaning, of wisdom, and of extraordinary journeys. They are sacred lessons. They are lessons that teach of a miraculous place and shine their light on the path that will take us there. "This book has all of the wisdom one could seek, told in a heart warming way that touched me deeply," writes bestselling author Bernie Siegel, M.D. "When a book leads me to tears and joy, as this book has, I know it contains the essence of life. Read it and reap the benefits of wisdom from the experience of others, rather than your own rude awakening." Wayne Dyer, the #1 New York Times best-selling author affirms the work as "stories to heal your life, beautifully presented."
