A sacred sanctuary—where medicine, care plans, and labels like “incontinent” and “terminal” fall away and where priority is placed instead upon two human beings connecting at two different junctures of life, united in this powerful moment of G.’s creation and a shared love of chocolate. G.’s space. His quiet place.

    Final-year nursing student Erin Bowdish reflects on the connection forged with a patient on comfort care during mealtime.
