An everyday event inside and outside Lewanika Hospital in Western Province for too many families, as I know you realize. At the same time, your stories remind us of the power of art, play, music, nature, and other non-medical interventions to help and heal, even when other treatment is not readily at hand. And there is actually research to demonstrate that empirically. Yet, both here and in Zambia, we so often neglect to bring these non-medical therapies into the picture. Why is that, I wonder? <br /><br />Happy Easter to the UBCO Nursing Zambia team and to all of our Zambian colleagues,<br /><br />Tricia MarckUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10409051543383567548noreply@blogger.com
