How a Pediatric Palliative Care Physician Found Spiritual Healing

Trigger Warning: The content of this episode includes narratives about seriously ill children. If you need to sit this one out, catch up with us on another episode and please take time to care for yourself. In his memoir titled “Because I Knew You: How Some Remarkable Sick Kids Healed a Doctor’s Soul”, Dr. Robert Macauley tells the story of the patients who have impacted his life, and how he’s changed for good. As a pediatric palliative care physician, Bob walks alongside kids and their parents through serious illnesses. Those experiences have shaped who he is, what he believes and how he practices medicine.   Buy your copy of “Because I Knew You: How Some Remarkable Sick Kids Healed a Doctor’s Soul” on Amazon Barnes & Noble   Watch Dr. Macaulay’s TEDx talk here.  You can find the Approaching Death Support Kit at bkbooks.com.
