Publisher Description
This gripping inspirational memoir grapples with the tension between faith and science—and between death and hope—as a seasoned neurosurgeon faces insurmountable odds and grief both in the office and at home.
WINNER OF THE ECPA CHRISTIAN BOOK AWARD® • “Beautiful, haunting, powerful.”—Daniel G. Amen, MD
Dr. W. Lee Warren, a practicing brain surgeon, assumed he knew most outcomes for people with glioblastoma, head injuries, and other health-care problems. Yet even as he tried to give patients hope, his own heart would sink as he realized, I’ve seen the end of you.
But it became far more personal when the acclaimed doctor experienced an unimaginable family tragedy. That’s when he reached the end of himself.
Page-turning medical stories serve as the backdrop for a raw, honest look at how we can remain on solid ground when everything goes wrong and how we can find light in the darkest hours of life.
I’ve Seen the End of You is the rare book that offers tender empathy and tangible hope for those who are suffering. No matter what you’re facing, this doesn’t have to be the end. Even when nothing seems to makes sense, God can transform your circumstances and your life. And he can offer a new beginning.
Customer Reviews
Great book!
I truly enjoyed the real life honesty of our struggle with faith and doubts. Something I have been struggling with the past 3 years because the the circumstances that have transpired in my life. Very uplifting and encouraging and was something I was needing to read.

I found this book on my partner’s work station. The title seemed ominous but I knew it was written by a Christian neurosurgeon like myself. Whether it’s our own life trials or those we try to help navigate our patients through, doubt always creeps in. The more I learn, the more I find that we know nothing. The only truth is that it’s not ours. We have to be humble enough to accept life’s obstacles, find joy even in pain and try to follow the “map” or guidebook He has given us to make good decisions.
Thank you for writing this Lee.
