What people are saying:

"…the journaling class gave me a very tangible way to connect my care here in the hospital to life beyond my discharge—to carry something special away from the hospital experience that will be helpful in many areas of my life. It makes me excited about journaling and hopeful about what a positive impact it will have on my health and well being."
                                             – Patient response to journaling session
 

"(Patients) love the journaling group. They love the journals. The fact that we actually give them a journal as a keepsake of the things they felt, learned, pondered, etc. while they were here... captures a rough time in their lives when they, in many instances, were at a crossroad."
                                            – Diane Meglin, Social Worker, DUMC
