Goodness – Paperback

A woman about to give birth can’t stop thinking about her last pregnancy, which ended in a miscarriage. An exhausted mother is admitted to the psych ward after too many sleepless nights. A young athlete might have a concussion. A disgruntled mother-in-law needs a new knee. And a grandmother is dying slowly, too slowly for some staff. The women in Goodness came to this hospital for help. All of them deserve care and kindness. Not all of them will find it.

Goodness is a collection of short stories about women experiencing relatable healthcare issues, set in a hospital. If you’ve ever had a health problem and felt dismissed, ridiculed, or abandoned by people you turned to for help, this book is for you.
