Just where is the intersection between spirituality and medicine? Life and Death and the Things in Between is a collection of ten stories documenting the struggles and strengths of the human spirit as it searches for meaning amid challenging circumstances. The stories reveal the psychological and emotional experiences of people in Dr. Arty's milieu who are besieged by profound life-changing events and circumstances, such as severe mental illness, addiction, terminal illness, and personal loss. They are stories of love and courage, and of trauma and suffering. Most of all, they are stories of compassion and hope. Being a psychiatrist of Haitian origin working in Brooklyn, New York, Dr. Arty has incorporated his heritage and culture into several of the stories-some of which are written within the frame of a medical illness. The publication of this book is a new proof of Dr. Arty's determination to share his rich experience with other human beings. There is no doubt that the readers will see this book as an invitation to remain compassionate and courageous in the worst times of adversity. E.F.Thébaud, M.D., Clinical Assistant Professor of Psychiatry, SUNY Downstate Medical Center "In his series of short stories adapted from his personal experiences or that of his patients, Pierre vividly weaves an intricate web of each character's story. His depiction of each story is more enthralling than the other..." Mary Pender Greene, LCSW-R, Psychotherapist/Author, President and CEO of MPG Consulting "These are stories of the mentally ill and the disenfranchised, of immigrants and the down and out--stories of life and death, faith, hope, and love. They are stories that touch our hearts with their humanity and their reflection of the human condition..." T.L.

“To prepare yourself to make difficult medical decisions in a distinctly Christian way, you won’t do better than to read Between Life and Death.” —Tim Challies Modern medical advances save countless lives. But for all their merits, sophisticated technologies have created a daunting new challenge, namely a blurring of the expanse between life and death. The dying process is often hidden behind a complex web of medical terminology, statistics, and ethical decisions, making it difficult for patients and loved ones to know how to approach the end of life in a dignity-affirming, Godhonoring, faith-filled way. This book offers a distinctly Christian guide to end-of-life care. It equips readers by explaining common medical jargon, exploring biblical principles that connect to common medical situations, and offering guidance for making critical decisions. In these pages, readers will find the medical knowledge and scriptural wisdom they need to navigate this painful and confusing process with clarity, peace, and discernment.

Dr Kashyap Patel is a renowned oncologist in the US who works with terminally ill cancer patients. Through him, we meet Harry, who, after a life full of adventure, is diagnosed with terminal lung cancer. As he stares death in the face, Harry leans on Dr Patel, an expert in understanding the process of death and dying. His questions and fears are addressed through the stories of many other patients that Dr Patel has treated-from the young and vivacious to those who had already lived full lives, from patients who could barely afford their rent to those who had been wildly successful. What ties these stories together is the single thread of the lessons Harry learns along the way, lessons that ultimately enable him to plan his own exit from the world gracefully-dying without fear.

On the morning of December 14, 2012, I tried to go to sleep. Just before I could slip into a deep sleep, I started to get the beginnings of a poem repeating inside my head. It started out as two rhyming sentences that kept repeating over and over in my head as I was trying to go to sleep. I eventually got up and wrote the whole poem. Later that week, as I was thinking about that poem and another poem came into my head. My girlfriend eventually joined in on the fun of finding different things to write poems on. She would say to me, “Why don’t you write a poem about this, or that?” So, when she mentioned it, I started to write about it. When I finished, I decided to compile all of the poems into a book, and share them with the rest of the world.
