And Another Thing: Memories of Family Life with a Psychiatrist

Fenwick, Elizabeth: - Elizabeth Fenwick's adolescent dreams of becoming a doctor began to crumble soon after she went up to Cambridge and discovered the reality of the medical course, including anatomy with real corpses, held no attraction at all. However, she did accidentally discover the perfect solution. Marry someone who really does want to be a doctor and you get to know all the interesting bits without any of the hard work.Elizabeth and Peter Fenwick married soon after he qualified as a neuropsychiatrist, and have now had nearly 60 years together, with three children and nine grandchildren. She has written several books on sexual problems, parenthood and childcare, and, together with her husband, on death, dying and end of life experiences. They still live in the house in south London which they bought soon after they were married but have spent most of the last Covid years in the safe haven of their Scottish holiday home.
