Book Review: I’ve Seen the End of You

I’ve Seen the End of You

Dr. W. Lee Warren, a practicing brain surgeon, assumed he knew most outcomes for people with glioblastoma, head injuries, and other health-care problems. Yet even as he tried to give patients hope, his own heart would sink as he realized, I’ve seen the end of you.
But it became far more personal when the acclaimed doctor experienced an unimaginable family tragedy. That’s when he reached the end of himself.
Page-turning medical stories serve as the backdrop for a raw, honest look at how we can remain on solid ground when everything goes wrong and how we can find light in the darkest hours of life.
I’ve Seen the End of You is the rare book that offers tender empathy and tangible hope for those who are suffering. No matter what you’re facing, this doesn’t have to be the end. Even when nothing seems to makes sense, God can transform your circumstances and your life. And he can offer a new beginning.

My Thoughts

Dear reader,
I wanted to let you know that I absolutely loved this book.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not an easy, light-hearted. I’VE SEEN THE END OF YOU is about a brain surgeon and his struggle with faith and doubt and grief because of the things he’s seen and experienced.
Yes, I had to take a break from reading this one a couple times because reading about people with GBM? It’s not easy. That doesn’t mean this book isn’t good though.
Through this book, I learned so much more about GBM and brain tumors. I learned about faith and doubt and what faith looks like in the face of grief. And I will carry those lessons I learned through reading this book with me forever.
Again, this isn’t an easy read, but it’s an incredibly good one. If you enjoy reading nonfiction, give this one a try; it’s worth it!

Love,
Kathryn
