Overview

"""We are in a paradigm shift where patients need the help of the healthcare system, yet at the same time have to protect themselves from it."" NERVE: Surviving Medical Madness by Laura Buchman is a chilling medical memoir about her nineteen-year-old son who finds himself in the fight of a lifetime. Just months after starting an undergraduate conservatory to study percussion, her son finds his life thrown off course when he enters the hospital for what was supposed to be a routine, in-and-out visit. In critical condition, with his life threatened and his health spinning out of control, she trusts the hospital that is taking care of her son. As the veil lifts, she becomes aware that unnecessary procedures, tests, scans, and medications can set off a catastrophic cascade of health issues unrelated to why a patient entered the hospital. Ultimately NERVE takes you on a journey of a resilient young man who finds himself in an unfathomable health crisis that you will not soon forget."
