In All That Moves Us, Dr. Jay Wellons pulls back the curtain to reveal the profoundly moving triumphs, haunting complications, and harrowing close calls that characterize the life of a pediatric neurosurgeon, bringing the high-stakes drama of the operating room to life with astonishing candor and honest compassion. Reflecting on lessons learned over twenty-five years and thousands of operations completed on some of the most vulnerable and precious among us, Wellons recounts with gripping detail the moments that have shaped him as a doctor, as a parent, and as the only hope for countless patients whose young lives are in his hands. Wellons shares scenes of his early days as the son of a military pilot, the years of grueling training, and true stories of what it's like to treat the brave children he meets on the threshold of life and death. All That Moves Us is an unforgettable portrait of the countless human dramas that take place in a busy modern children's hospital-and a meditation on the marvel of life as seen from under the white-hot lights of the operating room.
