A beautiful retelling of stories that make up the tapestry of rural and remote nursing. - Ruth Ni Scanlain Hackett, Emergency Nurse Practitioner

From the Warrumbungle Mountains to the red earth of the Pilbara, the Island of Lemnos to the opal fields of Lightning Ridge, this memoir spans seventy years of a life dedicated to family, adventure and service to others.

Leigh left her final nursing position with a desire to share the stories of the indigenous people she so loved working with. As she records their lives, and recounts other character rich stories, Leigh reveals her own life journey: of childhood tragedy, nursing in the era of hospital training, raising a family on a rural property and the realities of providing medical care in rural and remote Australia.

Like many of her patients, Leigh's story is one of resilience and courage in the face of adversity.

As Leigh devoted her life to making a difference her story asks us to consider what we can do to care for others.
