Risultati per "La famiglia" in Medico

Cosa succede quando l'irruzione di un imprevisto spezza una simbiosi durata più di sessant'anni? Quando, senza avvertire, una terribile notizia rompe il legame quasi simbiotico che aveva tenuto due fratelli uniti sin dai loro primi giorni su questa Terra? È quello che racconta Enrico Vanzina che in questo audiolibro ripercorre la storia del rapporto con suo fratello Carlo, fino alla scoperta della malattia che lo ha colpito, portando, nel giro di un anno, alla sua scomparsa. "Mio fratello Carlo" è tante cose insieme.

Anne McTiernan begins her second memoir in 1982 at age 29, soon after completing her doctoral training in public health research at the University of Washington. She and her husband are now parents to 4-year-old and 3-month-old girls. Realizing that jobs in her field are scarce, especially for women, Anne decides the only option for their financial security is to become a medical doctor. Overcoming her fear and life-long struggle with inadequacy, she moves the family 3,000 miles to New York to begin medical school.

It needed to be "managed", and Rachel had, at best, two years to live. Refusing to accept the bleak prognosis, Rachel was determined to stay alive.
