RIPPED APART: LIVING MISDIAGNOSED

This is what it is like to suffer due to doctor mistakes and their refusal to admit the mistakes. It is a story of American hospitals, in which 50% of the patients are in the hospital due to having been in the hospital. It is a personal story with a wider look at the failure of our health care system.

This is no polite narrative. The book tells what suffering is - Gary Stern spent three years with his internal organs on the outside of his body - but despite the medical misery and the landmark legal case, the book is a love story, how Carol Stern's love for her husband overcame the horrors of what they went through. The story of a wife who would not let her husband die until he told her he was ready. A wife who refused to give up, someone who fought the health care system including struggling - successfully - with the White House.

There has never been a more honest book written about the dark side of American health care and about love that knows no boundaries.
