Despite being told the field needed more men and not women, Martha pursued her education in PT and was eventually hired by the very man who had tried to discourage her. It wasn't easy. Many challenges awaited her, yet over nearly forty years of practicing her profession, Martha gleaned wisdom not only about treating patients but about life, humanity, and compassion. "All The Broken Bodies: My Life as a Physical Therapist" contains the stories of her most memorable patients and what she learned from them.
