Another great interview Jane. The part that resonated with me the most is about us all eventually becoming patients. It sounds so simple, but it is true. I've had countless bad experiences with doctors who refused to take the time, belittled me and even laughed at me as a patient. And also an experience with a nurse practitioner who really saw me. I can't tell you the difference it made. I walked out of her office lighter. I made a point of thanking her every time I came to see her. But then she moved back to BC because Quebec wasn't paying nurses enough. It's an absolute heartbreak. To find a good doctor is an absolute gold.

Thank you for this offering, to know there are folks in the world who raise chickens & empathize (not sympathize) with the chronically ill & love MJ as much as I do & recognize hospitality as a way of being, feels necessary right now.
