The hospital is starting to get its presentations and displays ready for "Spiritual Care Awareness Week". For several years this has includes a series of small posters introducing a variety of world religions, including Wicca. The person who is reprinting the posters asked me if I wanted to re-do the Wicca poster to reflect paganism more broadly

Thanks, Your're encouragement is also appreciated.

well, you are a great "ambassador" and your knowledge is quite wide-ranging.

You are doing well, young grasshopper. Be my chaplain when I go to hospital :D... it will be up at Sunnybrooke, not sure if you can make the trek.

I can find my way. :)
I think there is a free shuttle bus that goes from Women’s College Hospital, downtown, directly to Sunnybrooke's front door. Otherwise its one subway rite and one bus ride away (just don't know which bus).

...and thanks for the kind words (everyone). It’s not easy ploughing into a profession that is unfamiliar with considering any non-Christian faith when discerning training and experience... on behalf of a 'community' of folks who aren't always sure what community is, what we want, or how to value the contributions of anyone outside our particular clique, coven, or coffee klatch. Of course, you’re familiar with that sort of difficulty yourself, so you know an 'atta-boy or 'atta-girl can go a long way (and has to).

I was a bit 'the glass is half empty' in my last response - I should say that I have had some ongoing support from certain people and sections of the community, for which I am very grateful... 'The glass is half full’, too.
