Courage, Reminders and Remembrances was written by Dr. George Paulson, Emeritus Professor and Founder of the Neurology Department at the Ohio State University Medical Center, and formerly the elected Chief of the Medical Staff of the OSU University Hospital. Service to patients and their caregivers convinced him that the single word that best describes the fortitude, persistence, and devotion of patients and caregivers is Courage. Courage may not be the greatest of all the virtues, as some suggested, but it is the bedrock for the other virtues. There can be courage in a single act, as in martial or manly courage, but the courage to live despite disease and the courage needed to care for another in distress or chronically ill is moral courage--the courage to be, to do, to continue despite perplexity, loneliness, and even lack of support from others. Following discussion of what courage consists of, twenty six patients are introduced who displayed courage despite having various forms of Parkinson's or Alzheimer's disease, or multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, autism, stroke, dystonia, etc. For each case example the lessons learned are summarized. Some had help from insurance plans or governmental resources, professionals helped some, and a spouse or family member could be supportive. The author's search for the motivation for moral courage revealed many things, including a vow, loyalty, or gratitude for the past, but the major motivation and one that was often not stated was love, benevolent love. And unexpected to this physician author, many found ultimate comfort from inside, from prayer, and from God.
