    As a former nurse, this one really touched me, Colette. It perfectly captures that strange dynamic of host/guest which is reversed in home care vs a hospital. And there is just as much of a sense of care in that offered cup of tea as there is in the nurse offering to help the patient with their needs.

      Thanks so much , Laura, for your empathic comment and for your skilled and compassionate work!! I know the dynamic well, as the parent of a microcephalic young woman! Our nurses have saved us!!
