@johnbishop That's great! I would really love to teach about art to a group of doctors. I kind of feel like a person who can bridge that gap. I almost applied to medical school, but I changed my mind and worked in biological research for awhile instead. I later left the lab and went to art school. I read a lot about medical issues and after asking questions at my mom's appointments, I've had doctors ask me if I work in health care. I was wearing a Mayo shirt at the time and that caught their attention too. I guess I've been using my artist "observation skills" for a long time everywhere which helps me figure out health issues. After seeing your comment, I added this link to my facebook page too.

I followed John's lead and posted it on my personal FB page as well. I'm also going to send it to Henry Ford Hospital. They have started a Patient Advisory Board and I go to monthly meetings (the Patient Advisory Board attempts to make the hospital more patient-friendly by getting input from actual patients!). This is such a great idea of treating the whole person, not just the disease/disorder.
