This book combines insights on chronic illness with spiritual care skills and suggestions to enhance well-being for people living with long-term illness.Using a narrative approach, the author reflects on the stories of two women - Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz, who travels from Kansas (a state of health) to Oz (an illness experience), alongside the author's personal experiences of managing an incurable autoimmune disease. Chapters will include guidelines and exercises that help equip caregivers to facilitate healing with people who live with long-term health conditions. 4aSpiritual care (Medical care) 4aChronically illxCare. 4aChronically illxReligious life. 4aChronic diseasesxReligious aspects. 2lcccBK 00104070aPNLIBbPNLIBcGENd2021-06-17oBL65.M4 A76 2020pPNLIB21061255r2021-06-17w2021-06-17yBK c1441d1441
