Original recording date: Nov. 2019 Guest: A retired nurse at the Village of Riverside Glen For this episode, a met with a resident who used to work as a nurse. She collects stuffed animals, and things that remind her of her past, and things that make her happy. Real life objects blend with the art and the items in her room, the birds she displays in her room become the same birds at the feeder outside her window, and the boundaries of reality vs imagination aren't clear. It's a beautiful exchange. The music behind this episode is "Amarylis Tape" by Dave Snider.

Original Recording Date: October 2019 Guest: Elizabeth In this episode I interview Elizabeth from The Village of Arbour Trails.  This woman worked as a nurse, and she is truly special: she shared a lot of very real feelings and it was such a privilege to get to exist in the vulnerability together.
