Samenvatting:

“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 mother’s chilling medical memoir about how her hospitalized nineteen-year-old finds himself fighting for his life.

Just months after starting at Juilliard, her son's life is thrown off course when he enters the hospital for what should have been a routine, in-and-out visit.

In critical condition, with his life threatened and his health spinning out of control, she trusts the doctors and the hospital that are taking care of her son until she becomes aware that unnecessary procedures, tests, scans, and medications may have set off a catastrophic cascade of devastating health issues.

NERVE takes you on a journey as this resilient young man navigates an unfathomable health crisis that could happen to anyone. It's a story you will not soon forget.
