    Inside every body lies a story. 
    In every scar, a memory. 
    And in every silence, a possibility for healing. 
    The Surgeon’s Hands is not a medical memoir—it’s a meditation on presence, precision, and what it truly means to witness someone. Through ten quietly luminous chapters, Maurizio—a gifted and intuitive surgeon—guides us through consultations that become rituals, procedures that begin with reverence, and encounters where touch transcends technique. 
    This is not a tale of transformation by scalpel alone. 
    It is a short novel about the sacred in every pause, and the voice beneath every wound. 
    For surgeons, it is a mirror. 
    For patients, a refuge. 
    For readers, an unfolding. 
    Come closer. 
    You are already enough.

    There is something about the number 3.    
     
    The Ancient Greeks believed 3 was the perfect number, and in China 3 has always been a lucky number, and they know a thing or two.   
     
    Most religions also have 3 this and 3 that and, of course, in these more modern times, three’s a crowd may be too many, except when it’s a ménage à trois.  It seems good things usually come in threes. 
     
    Whatever history and culture says WE think 3, a hat-trick of stories, is a great number to explore themes and literary avenues that classic authors were so adept at creating.
