Maya - is the kitten that Steere House NH adopted with Oscar (see below). Here she is sitting in a drawer in the nurses office.

A snapshot of my day that I did not take.

The tough cases always involve kids.

His mom died about a month ago on the hospice inpatient unit. Now he walks back in the door with his best friend.

Could I show Billie where Mom died? Sure, let give Bilie a tour of the unit.

Mind if we play a game of checkers with Jim, a mentally retarded patient dying of esosphageal cancer.

So there he sat one month after his mom died, playing checkers and bringing joy to Jim's final days.
