Medicine, Mystery & the Divine Near Providence, Farwaniya
David Dosa's "Making Rounds with Oscar" introduced the world to a nursing home cat with an uncanny ability to predict which patients would die within hours, curling up beside them in their final moments with an accuracy that exceeded any clinical prognostic tool. Oscar's behavior, documented in a 2007 article in the New England Journal of Medicine, represents just one example of the unexplained phenomena that permeate medical settings. In Providence, Farwaniya, Kuwait, physicians and nurses carry their own catalogs of inexplicable events—events that "Physicians' Untold Stories" by Dr. Scott Kolbaba finally brings to light. The book reveals that Oscar was not an anomaly but a symbol of a broader pattern: living systems, including human clinicians, appear to perceive information about death and dying through channels that science has not yet mapped.
