While his life was ultimately saved, his journey to wellness within the conventional medical establishment--from three weeks in the ICU to in-patient rehab--was nothing short of nightmarish. Frequently sedated and physically restrained, he was inundated with mental, emotional, and sensory evidence of an industry gone haywire, experiencing clearly from the patient side what he had only touched on as an advocate. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVowing to be an even stronger voice for change, Ross used the power of his mind to recover faster than any of his doctors predicted. \u003cem\u003eFloating Feathers\u003c\/em\u003e not only recounts his compelling story but elucidates a thoughtful and authoritative critical call to the members of his beloved profession for a massive overhaul. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"We possess the technology and the brilliant minds to motivate this level of sweeping change so desperately required,\" he says. \"We simply need to champion it as a non-negotiable priority.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis profoundly personal yet wide-reaching book endeavors to be a vital first step toward that goal. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/njcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-13394008\"\u003eRoss I.
