| 520 | _aSplitting his time between a trauma center in Toronto's inner city and the largest teaching hospital in Addis Ababa, he discovers that through the cultures, resources, and medical challenges of the hospitals may differ, they are linked indelibly by the ground floor : the location of their emergency romos. Here, on the ground floor, is where Maskalyk confronts his fears and doubts about medicine, and witnesses our mourning and laughter, tragedies and hopes, the frailty of being and the resilience of the human spirit. Yet he is swept most intimately into this story of 'human aliveness' not as a physician, but as a grandson caring for his grandfather, now in his ninties. | ||
