In loving memory of my mother and my father

I have faith in all those things that are not yet said.
I want to set free my most holy feelings.
What no one has dared to want
will be for me impossible to refuse.

Rainer Maria Rilke

I VE WRITTEN THIS BOOK in the hope that it will help you work more effectively with your doctor and other health professionals. This book isnt intended to be a substitute for medical care; no book can be that. However, I hope youll share it with the health professionals with whom you work; I believe that all healers can benefit from a more intuitive outlook in their delivery of care, just as I believe that all patients can benefit from a more open and trusting relationship with a caring doctor.

Please note that, to protect their privacy, Ive disguised the names and identifying characteristics of my patients described in these pages. My friends have kindly granted me permission to use their stories and real names. I am grateful to the many patients and friendsmentors allwho have shared their experiences with me for this book.
