“Dear Mrin, I already knew of this wonderful book from when I was a patient so it was very exciting to finally hold it in my hands! I ended up reading it in two days, and it was such a powerful testament to love and family, the strength of the human spirit. What really impressed me the most was doctor-patient relationships that came across so beautifully in each story. Congratulations on this terrific book, what a marvellous achievement.”

“Mrin, I recently read your book after hearing you speak at an AMA meeting. I thought it was great. I would recommend it especially for people who might be considering General Practice, so they can appreciate the challenges and the joys that come with the speciality. Well Done!”

“I just want you to know that I love your book. When I am reading it, I feel like I’m there with those people and can feel their emotions clearly. It’s fabulous and it also gives me a good understanding of the various illnesses but with a very human approach. I love the way you have made these incidents into proper stories and the people so real. You have a gift and are definitely a very talented writer. Thank you so much for sharing”

Many of the readers will be able to relate their own struggles with illness and disability. Through these journeys can feel confident that we have the true support and boundless knowledge of our GP’s
Thank you, Dr Mrin Nayagam for your comfort and wise words during my own journey over the years.

Congratulations again on your book launch! I finished reading your book last weekend. Every story was a heartfelt one, and oh my goodness, I couldn’t keep reading it without tissue box besides me! We all go through ups and downs, and these people have been through so much through their sickness, but they all somehow find their happiness, glimpse of hopes and courage to get through it, the light side of the tunnel. I wept so much. We never know what struggles people have been through behind their smiles, don’t we.?
Life is very individual and lots of ups and downs regardless small or big. Your patients’ stories definitely gave me some courage and I felt very compassionate to all those people. However, the most importantly I admire you so much for your purpose of publishing the book!! I’m hoping maybe you would consider writing silver linings 2!!

Mrin Nayagam is my GP and I have had the privilege of seeing her go from just the idea about the book to writing it, having it published, and launching it. So fabulous. What an inspirational woman.

I very much enjoy the way Mrin write, it keeps me engaged and interested. I feel the warmth and caring of her within the stories and this is what makes then individual and ‘magical’. From my perspective, I feel these stories are written from the heart.
