第二双手

第二双手

第二双手, offering practical and spiritual help for parents with hospitalized children—written by parents of hospitalized children—has been published by the 儿科 Spiritual Care 咨询委员会 of SUNY 澳门银河平台 Medical University and 大学医院 with the help of a grant from the Wilbert Foundation. 这本书 is distributed to the families of pediatric patients at 大学医院.

这本书, which takes its title from a story told by Lou Farchione, MD, a member of the 儿科 Spiritual Care 咨询委员会 and a retired Syracuse pediatrician who described his approach to patient care as involving both his hands and "第二双手" from God, includes stories from parents about how their spiritual life helped them through their ordeal.

Along with heartwarming stories, the book offers practical advice for families. Sidebars and footnotes provide helpful tips and resources for managing stress, maintaining healthy family relationships, and balancing career and financial concerns—challenges that are unique to parents with children who have medical needs.

用自己的声音

用他们自己的声音

用自己的声音, is a collection of the children's stories of hope. These stories were told to Eric Kingson on behalf of the Center for Spiritual Care, SUNY 澳门银河平台 Medical University.

"This precious book is a reminder to adults about what is important in life. Don't suffer, grab a snuggle, get goofy. Fun, love, play, art, friends don't hide the horror. They simply show that they can be bigger than the suffering. What do you do for children with cancer? When you are with them, hold the pity, and play with them, enjoy yourself. You will find yourself invigorated."

帕奇·亚当斯,M.D., is a nationally known speaker on wellness, 笑声, and humor as well as on health care and health care systems. Dr. Patch Adams is the real person behind the hit movie, "Patch Adams," starring Robin Williams.

A grant from the Wilbert Foundation provided money for the initial printing of 第二双手 and generous support from the Weedsport Winter Wanderers Snowmobilers Club made 用自己的声音 可能的.
