I found "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" interesting, a little confusing at times, moving, and sad. I did not understand the meaning of the title at first, but the author does make the title clear as the reader progresses through the book. This book is a reminder that despite all the medical technology available to physicians, there are some things that remain out of reach and extremely frustrating to patients and their family members and friends. I do not know if I would recommend this book to anyone else, it left me with an uneasy feeling, but is it for pity for the family or for my own discomfort for what I have learned about what others endure? I suppose I am not able to answer that question at this time.
