520 "What does it cost to live? When we fall ill, our lives
are itemized on a spreadsheet. A thousand dollars for a
broken leg, a few hundred for a nasty cut while cooking
dinner. Then there are the greater costs for even greater
misfortunes. The car accidents, breast cancers, blood
diseases, and dark depressions. When Emily Maloney was
nineteen she tried to kill herself. An act that would not
only cost a great deal personally, but also financially,
sending her down a dark spiral of misdiagnoses, years
spent in and out of hospitals and doctor's offices, and
tens of thousands owed in medical debt. To work to pay off
this crippling burden, Emily becomes an emergency room
technician. Doing the grunt work in a hospital, and taking
care of patients at their most vulnerable moments,
chronicling these interactions in searingly beautiful,
surprising ways. Shocking and often slyly humorous, Cost
of Living is a brilliant examination of just what exactly
our troubled healthcare system asks us to pay, as well as
a look at what goes on behind the scenes at our hospitals
and in the minds of caregivers"--|cProvided by publisher.
