  • Haikus Of A Nursing Student on June 03, 2017

    I am biased because I drew the pictures in it. To be fair, I initially didn't want to. Some of the haikus are light-hearted and funny, but some are poignant, tragic, and brutally real. Lost causes, life-and-death results, and pointless struggles all feature here as well and I didn't want my doodles getting in the way of that beautiful honesty. I tried to stay out of the way as much as I could, only adding visual interest like a prop every couple of pages. I think I ended up with some nice little icings for this cake, but I am seriously impressed with the baker. If you are a health-care student or professional, these metered observations will resonate with your own experiences. Check it out, and let a weird bit of wonderful into your life.
