Join us Tuesday, May 16 at 6:30 p.m. as we welcome Dr. Kwane Stewart to the store to discuss and sign "What It Takes to Save a Life: A Veterinarian's Quest for Healing and Hope." This event is free to attend and will be held at DIESEL, A Bookstore in Del Mar. Free seating is limited. To reserve a seat, please purchase one copy of a book for one seat. Dr. Kwane Stewart on Facebook Project Street Vet on Facebook About: Dr. Kwane Stewart was questioning his career as a veterinarian when he saw a homeless man with a flea-infested dog outside of a convenience store. In a moment of spontaneous generosity, he offered to examine the dog and treat him for free. It was the first step in a now nine-year journey that has taken Dr. Kwane from Skid Row to San Francisco and beyond to care for pets and their humans who are living on the streets. In "What It Takes to Save a Life," Dr. Kwane shows how our four-legged, feathered, scaled, and swimming family members—these dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and other animals that live side by side with us—provide more than companionship. They offer essential love, hope, and a sense of security. Written with striking honesty and rich detail, Dr. Kwane looks back on his childhood, how he discovered his appreciation for animals and his calling, and offers a frank assessment of the state of veterinary medicine today, where compassion fatigue, burnout, and suicide are facts of life. Full of warm and inspiring stories of human-animal relationships, this powerful and eye-opening book is a reminder that we are all members of a wider family. It is also a clarion call for each of us to help those in need—especially our most vulnerable brothers and sisters—and the animals who are their families. Wise and warm, Dr. Stewart's story is a reminder that one life can make an immeasurable difference. Stewart is a veterinarian with more than twenty years of experience. He is the founder of Project Street Pet, a nonprofit organization devoted to caring for the lives of the homeless and their animals and his work as “the Street Vet” treating homeless animals and their human caretakers can be seen on YouTube. He lives in San Diego.
