Synopsis by Perry Seibert
This documentary shines a light on the seemingly effective practice of incorporating poetry into the lives of patients recovering from surgery and major illnesses. Spearheaded by Dr. John Graham-Pole and John Fox, this rather inexpensive addition to the healing benefit has had a positive effect on many lives.
