Enjoyable book Dec 11, 2007
By Momma Nurse
As a hospice nurse and admirer of Mother Teresa, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, which like other reviewer said, is not just about a hospice nurse "adventure," but a story of true compassion, love and respect for others, especially those in the most dire, bleak conditions. Rosemary Dew's sense of adventure, courage and stamina is inspiring. Very well written, easy, compelling read. I too, have given this book as gifts for fellow nurses and friends.

In Mother Teresa's House Jul 09, 2007
By Mo
I loved this book. It was a very different perspective on life in India, in Calcutta. As a nurse, and as one who has always loved Mother Teresa - this was an excellent read.

Wonderful Book! Nov 09, 2006
By Jane
I liked this book even better than Rosemary's first book, 'No Backup' though I thought it was really good and read it straight through the first weekend I bought it. 'In Mother Teresa's House' tells of such a fascinating (and sometimes unnerving) adventure, yet it's not just that. This book has more than just adventure. It's about caring for people, a very basic respect for life and a loving concern for another human's (total strangers) feelings and well being. It also is very interesting from the point of view of diagnosing ailments, the intellectual medical mysteries that each person presents. I am not a medical person, so fortunately, the writing was not filled with confusing medical jargon. It was easy to read, easy to love and to recommend to friends. I've purchased several copies that I've given as gifts to friends in the medical profession, not because the book would only be of interest to someone in that profession, but because it's my way of telling my friends 'thank you' for the wonderful work each one does in their own way, with others.
