Quotes by Suzy Fincham-Gray (?)

“People had emotional needs I didn't understand and couldn't navigate, and they required my time and patience, which I didn't have enough of.”

“She was petite - slim in the gaunt, brittle way of girls in their early twenties trying hard to be liked.”

But swimsuits and flip=flops were alien to my British spirit.”
― Suzy Fincham-Gray, My Patients and Other Animals: A Veterinarian's Stories of Love, Loss, and Hope
