Every Friday, thousands of readers of Pulse--voices from the heart of medicine (www.pulsemagazine.org) receive a riveting first-person story or poem about health care. Written by patients and doctors, nurses and caregivers, students and mental health professionals, these intimate and beautifully crafted pieces capture the authentic voices of people whose lives have been changed by their healthcare experiences. Pulse: More Voices is the second published collection of Pulse writing. It contains every story and poem published in Pulse between April 24, 2009 and December 31, 2010, including: Each Day, Same Story: An intern describes her most compelling patient--the one who drives her crazy. Late Again: A family physician figures out why he always runs behind. One More Child Left Behind: A six-year-old has a broken arm, but no one can find a specialist to treat him.
