Beyond Supervet: How Animals Make Us The Best We Can Be by Noel Fitzpatrick
3.0
A heart-warming memoir by world-renowned veterinary surgeon Professor Noel 'Supervet' Fitzpatrick.
Noel speaks openly and bravely about very personal stories from his life Beyond Supervet, which may be a trigger warning for some people: sexual abuse, traumatic injuries to animals, mental health, and death.
Although Noel has faced personal challenges, the animals he treats have taught him valuable life lessons such as love, compassion, faith, and hope, which are also the chapter titles and themes.
I do feel the book was a bit of a personal therapy journey for Noel, writing to help himself heal, and I hope this continues to help him.
As in his previous works, there is some medical terminology, but I found the explanations of the surgeries interesting, and I enjoyed learning about how Noel's numerous bionic designs for animals came about.
Heart-breaking at times, but also thought-provoking.
