520 |a Despite training and years of experience as an oncology and hospice nurse, Brown found it difficult to navigate the medical maze when she learned she had breast cancer. Her experience shows how our for-profit health-care industry may "cure" us but at the same time leaves so many of us feeling alienated and uncared for. -- adapted from jacket
