In A Summer Surgery, Higginson presents a brief description of the reasons for his surgery, the reasons why he did not write haiku while in hospital, and then the poems he did write, arising from the details of his first week recovering at home.
In Waiting, his wife, Penny Harter, offers her view of those few days in the hospital and their immediate aftermath in her own succinct haiku style.
