Dr. Hudson's Secret Journal - Volume 1

Dr. Wayne Hudson, a highly skilled and dedicated brain surgeon, wields his scalpel in the operating room and his sharp mind delving into the human psyche. When he's not putting pen to paper writing patient prescriptions, Dr. Hudson chronicles the psychological traumas of the people and events in his life - from death and despair to love and relationships. Everyone who walks through Dr. Hudson's door is forever changed. "Dr. Hudson's Secret Journal" is based on the Lloyd C. Douglas' 1939 book of the same title.
