Soul of the Healer



 

After a Solstice Storm | to pdf >>
By Marie Mulligan, MD

when an old oak

is ripped from her belly

during a December storm?

or does she patiently welcome

its sagging flesh

back into her own?

-- spring of winter, 2002

 

 

Marie Mulligan, MD, is a family practice physician in the Headache Clinic at the KP Santa Rosa Neurology Department. She is currently on leave, studying Spanish in Mexico.
