Looking for a book that I read in my sophomore or Jr year of high school. All I can remember is it started in a village that was shot down, but a few escaped including this boy. The book is about a desert I think where people walked for months to safety to escape.
I'm pretty sure it took place in Africa and is a non-fiction book. Actually he became the administrator of the hospital and his book is a series of stories about all of that. He tells us about one client whom rallied in the face of impossible odds again and again and again to reach adulthood. He spoke about having lifelong relationships with his very injured patients.
He spoke about fund raising. All the special needs a hospital like his had and how he had to go about getting those needs met. He spoke about being mentored by the previous Administrator not really knowing what he was walking into. He spoke about it being a calling not a job.
At the end of the book was a chapter advising parents on what, where and how to get what they needed for their children should the need arise. An awesome book I lent to my client that was not returned that I need to repurchase so I once again have it in my library. Can any of you out there help me locate this amazing book?
I would be so appreciative. I do not know the name of the author, title or publisher. I am so sorry.

The story was about a woman who lived in a fantasy land where a certain numbers of years of charity work was required by the law and the world was divided into cultures by land, sea and air.
If I remember correctly, a man from the air was brought up on her beach by a young mermaid and she had to care for him. The mermaid was madly in love with him, abandoning her family to be with him, but the man didn't have much care for her really. The woman was charged with the task of taking the mermaid home and reversing the curse that the sea witch had placed on her, despite the growing attraction between the woman and the man the woman loved.
The woman displayed an unspeakable amount of selflessness as she sacrificed her feelings for the young mermaid and her older brother who was developing feelings for the woman whom she eventually met when returning the princess before solving the curse. The man ended up being a partner of the sea witch's and had been building a curse by stealing the mermaid's heart and a few other things that he'd harmed other characters, including the main woman, to obtain, but he accidentally fell in love with woman and invited her to be a partner to his evil.
Unfortunately or maybe fortunately. I still struggle to decide , the woman decided to uphold her selfless morals despite her own love for the man and actually killed him. It hurt her terribly and was heartwrenching to read. I don't know how much of the story would've changed during the publication process, so i tried to include as much detail as possible.
If this sounds even remotely familiar, please let me know. I originally read the book on Wattpad, but it was in the process of being published I think , so I figured checking here was worth a shot. The woman was charged with the task of taking the mermaid home and reversing the curse that a sea witch had placed on her, despite the growing attraction between the woman and the man the woman loved. I'm not sure how much of the story would've stayed the same if it went through publishing, so I tried to include as much detail as possible. If this sounds familiar, please let me know.
