“Above the care of Nature and of State, Suspended in the noon of Night we wait, All slumber nursing, to make sweet and pure, While secret Nature, weaving works the cure. We are the handmaids of the hollow night, The angels of the dark, restoring sight; We go -- the pains of Day to soothe, console -- Awake, arise! Behold thou art made whole.” ArtMadeStatesWholeCarePainNightWaitingDarkSecretSweetPureAngelSightAriseCuresAwakeHollowNursingNoonConsoleSuspendedSlumberRestoringWeavingHandmaids Author:Bram Stoker

“For we are not all equally afflicted with the same disease or all in need of the same severe cure. This is the reason why we see different persons disciplined with different crosses. The heavenly Physician takes care of the well-being of all his patients; he gives some a milder medicine and purifies others by more shocking treatments, but he omits no one; for the whole world, without exception, is ill (Deut 32:15).” WorldNeedsGivingWellsPersonsDifferentReasonWholeCareDiseaseCrossesMedicinePatientIllTake CareWhole WorldCuresWell BeingReason WhyExceptionTreatmentHeavenlyPhysiciansSevereShocking Book:Golden Booklet of the True Christian Life Source: Golden Booklet of the True Christian Life
“Money spent on vegetative patients is money not spent on preventive care, such as flu shots and mammograms. Each night in an ICU bed for such patients is a night that another patient with a genuine prognosis for recovery is denied such high-end care. Every dollar exhausted on patients who will never wake up again is a dollar not devoted to finding a cure for cancer.” EndsCareNightBedFindingsShotsWake UpDollarsPatientCancerGenuineRecoveryCuresDeniedDevotedExhaustedFluMammogramsPrognosisPreventive Care Author:Jacob M.

“We plant a tree that won't be big enough to climb until we're too old to climb trees, we write constitutions to protect the rights of people who won't be born for another hundred years and may not be worth the trouble anyway, and we try to take care of our sick, though we all suffer from a disease for which there is no cure and no hope for one. We will not last and we know we will not - and still we write, carve, build, paint and plant to last.
