The Untold Miracles of Medicine Near Westgate, Binh Duong

Viktor Frankl, surviving the concentration camps of World War II, concluded that human beings can endure any suffering if they can find meaning in it. His logotherapy—therapy through meaning—has influenced every subsequent generation of grief counselors, therapists, and spiritual advisors. In Westgate, Binh Duong, Southern Vietnam, Frankl's insight resonates with anyone who has watched a loved one die and asked the unanswerable question: why? "Physicians' Untold Stories" does not answer that question, but it enriches the search for meaning by documenting moments in which something meaningful—something extraordinary—appeared in medical settings where science could not account for it. Dr. Kolbaba's accounts are Frankl's insight in narrative form: evidence that meaning persists even at the boundary of death, and that physicians sometimes witness it firsthand.
