Used as a reference book for NICU staff at the University Hospital, Toronto.
Dr Simon Rowley is a consultant at Starship Children's Hospital who's been given a copy of the book.
"It
is a good reminder to all health professionals that when our patients
leave us, the story does not end for the parents. The detail is amazing,
and every little thought and action seems to have been recorded as it
happened, and then has been reflected upon.
"For parents undergoing
similar experiences this book could be a great comfort. For health
professionals, I would see it as essential reading."

World War II in Borneo, Tales of my Grandpa
 |
It
is seventy years after the end of the World War II, or the Japanese
occupation in Borneo. Captain Cheng aka Captain Fong and his Canadian
soldiers are remembered in their role of leading the surrender of the
Japanese.
I've been reading your book World War Two in Borneo: Tales of my
Grandpa. I was a bit hesitant to start it, since it is combined
fiction and fact and I didn't want to get the history mixed up in my
mind. However, I'm finding it very compelling to read.
