"Dr. Winn’s story is remarkably open, unguarded and intimate. I
believe that almost any physician, staff member, patient, patient
family member or friend will come away with new insights and
understanding after reading this moving memoir." —Frederick
R. Appelbaum, M.D. Director, Clinical Research Division, Fred
Hutchinson Cancer Research Center Little does he know that an
unexpected call that interrupts an early Spring bike ride in the
Wasatch mountains above Park City will change his life forever. A
day later, when Dr. Robert Winn’s beloved wife Nancy is diagnosed
with the life-threatening disease acute myeloid leukemia (AML), he
is too devastated and emotionally shattered to communicate with
family and their many friends. For many months he can’t even
speak without getting choked up or crying. At the nadir of her
illness Nancy is given a 5% chance of survival and Winnie (the name
lovingly bestowed upon Dr. Winn by his many patients and friends)
commits to always be by the side of his soul mate and to never
leave Nancy alone at night. As a result, during the entire two
years his wife is gravely ill and, at times, near death, he sits in
the quiet of Nancy’s hospital room late into the evening and
writes to their family and friends. These trials and tribulations
are movingly and remarkably captured for posterity in Night
Reflections: A True Story of Friendship, Love, Cancer, and
Survival. Life with cancer, a devastating disease for any patient
and family, is a constant struggle and fight for survival that
demands that you learn to live through the entire day, each hour,
and every minute. Night Reflections chronicles an inspirational
story of courage, love, devotion, struggle, and ultimately triumph.
Night Reflections will help anyone suffering from a devastating
illness, their loved ones, caregivers, and the medical community
alike and the strength to face even the darkest of days.
