Moral Medicine

Offering examples of how to make medicine better for the healers and those they serve, If I Betray These Words profiles clinicians across the country who are tough, resourceful, and resilient, but feel trapped between the patient-first values of their Hippocratic oath and the business imperatives of a broken healthcare system. If I Betray These Words confronts the threat and broken promises of moral injury—what it is; where it comes from; how it manifests; and who’s fighting back against it. We need better healthcare—for patients and for the workforce. It’s time to act.

The Breech Release: Opening Pathways for Midwifery and Prenatal Bodywork is not just about breech pregnancy and fetal positioning; it is about reclamation. It is about reenvisioning our story as birthworkers and bodyworkers. We are reclaiming anatomy from multiple perspectives and applying new value systems not just to what we name in the body, but to touch itself. We are reenvisioning midwifery and bodywork by returning to the basics of connection. We are recognizing that anatomy defines the space and informs the baby’s “inside information” in the womb.

Not every call ends with a save. Some end in silence. Some end with a family breaking in front of you. Some end with a long ride back to the station where nobody knows what to say. Some end on paper but stay with you for years. BLACK TAG: Some Calls End Different is a short, raw, emotionally honest book for EMTs, paramedics, firefighters, dispatchers, ER nurses, police officers, flight crews, military medics, first responders, and the families who love them. This is not a hero story. This is for the call that stayed. The room you still remember. The patient you could not bring back. The ...
