In Miracles & Moments of Grace: Inspiring Stories from Doctors, Nancy B. Kennedy brings together a breathtaking collection of fifty first-person stories told by physicians from all branches of medicine--family doctors, neurosurgeons, military doctors, ob/gyns, emergency room doctors, dentists, and missionary doctors who care for hurting people across our nation and around the globe. Their experiences speak of everything from the rescue of victims in the 9/11 terrorist attacks to the heart-stopping birth of a bloodless baby boy; from a delicate procedure performed in a darkened Haitian pavilion to a terrible secret that tortures a man in his final days. Triumphant or tragic, these poignant accounts are infused with tenderness, wonder, and at times even humor. Their stories will touch your heart and lift your spirits!

From the Back Cover:

"I believe that every doctor has at least one gripping story to tell. In this book, Nancy Kennedy chronicles dozens of these stories. Get ready to smile, to weep, and to praise God."
-- Robert Orr, MD, CM, senior fellow with The Center for Bioethics & Human Dignity and author of Medical Ethics and the Faith Factor

"These inspiring stories of doctors' tender encounters with anxious and fearful patients will open the door for you into one of the most precious, wonderful, and mysterious of all relationships -- the doctor-patient relationship. After you've shared in the experiences of these devoted and faith-filled physicians, the doctor's exam room may never seem a cold place again."
-- Walt Larimore, MD, medical director, Mission Medical Clinic, Colorado Springs, and bestselling author of Bryson City Tales and Hazel Creek
