Read Now Download Now
The Long Tale Of Tears And Smiles chronicles an immigrant oncologist’s journey of triumphs and struggles. From Damascus to Aleppo to St Louis to New Orleans to NJ, and then NY. From a medical student to a trainee to a practitioner caring for cancer patients and their families and watching the field of oncology evolves throughout the years.

The tale interweaves Bitar’s life stories with the stories of the patients she cared for. It reflects on how bearing witness to their survival or death inspired her life and changed it and how their anguish touched so closely on her own as she grieved the death of loved ones and watched the devastation of destruction and loss caused by the civil war in Syria.

In the space between life and death, Bitar’s profession thrives; and in that space, she searches for the meaning of her existence.
