Narrative Mindworks shares a reflection from Wania De Mendonca, BSN, RN, CNN, on the power of seeing, listening, and bearing witness in nursing.
In “Stories Welcome: The Power of Sight in Nursing,” Wania writes about a dialysis patient whose tears revealed a deeper story of love, loss, caregiving, and meaning. Her reflection reminds us that care is not only found in procedures or treatment, but also in the moments when someone feels truly seen and heard.
