Saint in the City: The story of one inner-city physician. He sounds almost too good to be true, and he probably is. There are some signs in the story of the strains his chosen path has placed on his personal life:
”I wouldn't want to be in his shoes for a single day. It's overwhelming. I'd get so frustrated," Perez later confides. "He hasn't had a real vacation in years."
...They're joined by Robson's wife, Senait Shiferaw, an Ethiopian-born nurse who, by necessity, not choice, spends her evenings cooking at their restaurant.
This is Robson's second family, following his separation in 1989 and subsequent divorce; and in a sense, an indirect outcome of a passion he developed for Ethiopia after joining his mother on a visit there in 1982.
I wonder how much longer the second wife will put up with it.
