Hypocratic Oaths: A Doctor’s Journey of Redemption from Broken Promises

The publicly perceived notion that the medical profession is a noble one has nothing to do with reality. Dr Gisela spent the better part of her early career working with medical emergencies in Johannesburg's trauma units, evacuating sick and injured patients from remote areas into first-world hospitals, and saving the lives of countless souls amidst violence, human decay, and hopeless despair. Behind her poker face lay a deep-seated hatred for the human race, and the hypocrite within could no longer survive. After years of broken promises, Dr Gisela finds herself at the edge of a deep, dark abyss, bitter in her profession and angry at her God for giving her the perfect angel of a daughter to raise.
Although her only desire is to evacuate herself out of this life, she is unable to turn her back on her child. In a desperate attempt to save her soul, and never having hiked a day in her life, she embarks on a 300-kilometre pilgrimage through the mountains of South Africa's Eastern Cape in search of deliverance, redemption, or an epiphany. She is mostly looking for a way back to love.
