"This book is really riveting and I found myself grimacing, denying, experiencing shock and awe, nodding and finally understanding so much about her saga and attempts to protect her dying husband from one medical error after another. If you want a good read, pick up 108 Days." - Toni Brayer, MD.

Atrocious care
Revisado: 04-16-25
The story initially struck me as a distressed wife and mother navigating a tragic injury to her husband. The AI narration caused me to have my finger on the delete button more than once- so annoying- mispronounced words, emphasis on the wrong syllable, weird pauses in the middle of a sentence UGH!! However, the story kept me coming back and I’m glad I suffered through the awful narration because the story was gripping, enraging, enthralling and raw. The feeling of “I know he’s going to die” and then “I just know he’s going to live” is so human and relatable to anyone who has dealt with a life threatening illness or injury. The incompetence of the doctors and staff at the hospital would be unbelievable except her attention to detail, backs her take on events. I definitely felt her pain and frustration and feeling of the admins just pacifying her concerns but doing nothing to help. The gaslighting by Drs and Nurses that “they never said that, or the wife misunderstood” was infuriating. The fact that no one seemed to talk to each other and no one seemed to understand the plan of care for a gravely ill man makes me sick.
I would listen to her sequel 108 decisions, but sadly it has the same AI narration and I just can’t do it again.
