A touching account of an Asian physician, a diplomate in Obstetrics and Gynecology, and pioneering woman who, with sensitivity, bares her soul in the prose and poetry of her life. Included are imaginings, dreams, and situations done deftly with humor and irony in her own unique voice. She writes with charm and feeling, her insights incisive as they are disarming, flavored by Philippine culture and her faith. Having lived through the remnants of World War II and the Japanese Occupation of the Philippines, some of the episodes in the book bear her impressions and experience.

In her own words, she says: "In more ways than one, we are all truly immigrants, coming into this life, adapting, adjusting, and re-inventing ourselves, only to migrate again to an unknown but hopefully, a more promising world."
