Tragic story
I'm not crazy about the AI voice but it didn't bother me as bad as it did some. I love listening to true stories and this one was no exception. It is horrifying to hear about all that happened but is is a reality of situations that can and do happen.

AI Voice isn’t great.
The story is interesting but AI voices still have a long way to go. It would have been a lot more pleasant if read by someone that conveyed emotion in all the right places.

Brutally honesy
Love and a persistent wife conquer all, unbelievably Curtis survived this horrific ordeal. I just shook my head every time something else bad happened... again. The way they were treated is disgusting.

Atrocious care
The story initially struck me as a distressed wife and mother navigating a tragic injury to her husband. The AI narration caused me to have my finger on the delete button more than once- so annoying- mispronounced words, emphasis on the wrong syllable, weird pauses in the middle of a sentence UGH!! However, the story kept me coming back and I’m glad I suffered through the awful narration because the story was gripping, enraging, enthralling and raw. The feeling of “I know he’s going to die” and then “I just know he’s going to live” is so human and relatable to anyone who has dealt with a life threatening illness or injury. The incompetence of the doctors and staff at the hospital would be unbelievable except her attention to detail, backs her take on events. I definitely felt her pain and frustration and feeling of the admins just pacifying her concerns but doing nothing to help. The gaslighting by Drs and Nurses that “they never said that, or the wife misunderstood” was infuriating. The fact that no one seemed to talk to each other and no one seemed to understand the plan of care for a gravely ill man makes me sick.
I would listen to her sequel 108 decisions, but sadly it has the same AI narration and I just can’t do it again.
