About this ebook
The author has spent more than a quarter of a century in one of the busiest emergency departments in Singapore. She recounts happenings that may make some think twice before visiting an emergency department; meet the gentleman drunk, the quirky patient, difficult relatives, the frustrated ‘big brother’, souls from another world amongst others.
Her book offers the reader a collection of entertaining anecdotes, each conveying an insight into the delights and difficulties of being human. Read this book and experience the tears, laughter, frustrations and jubilations of the people who work in emergency departments. You will then understand why the author and her fellow warriors are proud to have worked in a place that was dubbed by a guru emergency physician as “the newspaper that lines the bottom of a bird cage.”
