313. Hospital Visiting
When I was working as a music therapist, some of us went to an inservice at the local hospital, Good Samaritan Hospital. It was given by the Catholic priest. I’m sure he said more than I remember—but on the other hand I have always remembered two things.
1. No matter how short a visit you’re making, sit down. It says “I am here.” It says “You are important.”
2. Remember—the real sacrament is touch.
It actually applies to much more than visiting in a hospital.
