Heart In The Right Place by Carolyn Jourdan

In the early 1990's, Carolyn Jourdan returned to the East Tennesee hills where she had grown up in order to help out at her father's rural health clinic for a few days while her mother recovered from a heart attack. A few days vacation from her high-powered job in Washington D.C. turned into almost ten years of translating the local dialect and the medicare system.

This true story is about the people she encountered that first year and how she learned about the sense of satisfaction and belonging one can get from participating in grassroots community service.
