In 1987, during a night shift in Dublin, a syringe containing HIV-positive blood pierced Dr. Patrick Treacy's leg. At thirty-one, he went from doctor to patient in an instant, facing years of tests and the possibility that his life might be cut short.
Where Angels Dare To Tread follows what came next.
Treacy leaves Ireland, works in New Zealand as young asthma patients die from a pattern few are ready to act on, and later finds himself in Saddam Hussein's Iraq, where he treats the wounded, travels toward Halabja, and is detained and interrogated. Years later, his path takes him through postwar Liberia and earthquake-struck Haiti, as well as into unexpected encounters with people including Nelson Mandela and Michael Jackson.
But this is not simply a record of extraordinary places or famous names. It is a memoir about what happens when medicine stops being abstract: when the patient is in front of you, when institutions move too slowly, when fear becomes personal, and when showing up is sometimes the only useful thing left to do.
Spanning nearly forty years, Where Angels Dare To Tread is Patrick Treacy's account of medicine, danger, loss, and the people he met along the way.
