NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The award-winning book that inspired an Apple Original series from Apple TV+ • A landmark investigation of patient deaths at a New Orleans hospital ravaged by Hurricane Katrina—and the suspenseful portrayal of the quest for truth and justice—from a Pulitzer Prize–winning physician and reporter “An amazing tale, as inexorable as a Greek tragedy and as gripping as a whodunit.”—Dallas Morning News After Hurricane Katrina struck and power failed, amid rising floodwaters and heat, exhausted staff at Memorial Medical Center designated certain patients last for rescue. Months later, a doctor and two nurses were arrested and accused of injecting some of those patients with life-ending drugs. Five Days at Memorial, the culmination of six years of reporting by Pulitzer Prize winner Sheri Fink, unspools the mystery, bringing us inside a hospital fighting for its life and into the most charged questions in health care: which patients should be prioritized, and can health care professionals ever be excused for hastening death? Transforming our understanding of human nature in crisis, Five Days at Memorial exposes the hidden dilemmas of end-of-life care and reveals how ill-prepared we are for large-scale disasters—and how we can do better.

Bette Grey understands the plight of the uninsured. She has walked in the shoes of those she now helps to get healthcare. She believes the life events that triggered this journey were actually blessings in disguise to not only others but for her as well. She credits God with the nudges to begin the project. No matter what direction her life took, she always was brought back to the idea for a free clinic. While recuperating from a vital surgery, she thought about those with the same issues who had no access to care other than through the local emergency room. And then she really thought about those who might refuse to go. She knew they would ultimately end up in the emergency room as a necessity, nearing death. She credits the ABC news program, 20/20 and the segment featuring Jon BonJovi. The performer was dedicating many dollars to a local free clinic in his community. The free clinic in Red Bank followed the Volunteers in Medicine clinic model. Bette innocently decided to explore the internet to fi nd out about this type of clinic. She had no intentions of doing anything further but she believes God had other plans. Fast forward with many meetings under her belt, she was able to open the fi fty-fi rst Volunteers in Medicine clinic. As she looks back, she believes the lives saved are incredible, more than she ever thought. She really thought the clinic would be more for acute illness rather than the chronic diseases the clinic have treated. Never did she expect the seriousness of the diagnoses that would lead to the deaths of everyday folks.
