Life, Love, and the In Between
I have walked with people as they age, change, and live their lives, and I have been with them at the bedside when they are dying.
What they taught me changed how I understand love, loss, and what it means to live well.
As a geriatrician, Dr. Golnosh Sharafsaleh has spent years accompanying people across the full arc of life. She has witnessed how meaning evolves as certainty fades, how identity shifts with time, and how connection often deepens when life becomes more complex, not less.
When her own life was altered in ways she could not have prepared for, the lessons she had absorbed over years of caring for others became deeply personal. The distance between doctor and human being disappeared, and the wisdom she had once observed was now lived.
This book is not a chronicle of decline or a collection of medical stories. It is a reflection on how people continue to grow through aging, illness, love, and loss. It explores how relevance is redefined over time, how purpose changes shape, and how presence becomes more powerful than control.
Life, Love, and the In Between is written for anyone who senses that the most important lessons in life are learned not in moments of certainty, but in the in-between moments where we are forced to slow down, listen more closely, and pay attention to what truly matters.
