40 Years, 7 States, One Question: What Does It Mean to Help Someone Live?
Forty years, seven states, and one question that changes how you think about care: what does it mean to help someone live their life, not just recover from an injury? Occupational therapist Margret Kingery joins People of Distinction to share the moments that never make it onto the chart ; from a widow who relocated her husband's ashes so she could host neighbors for coffee, to practicing through 9/11 and the DC sniper while serving schoolchildren. Her book, Stories from My Occupational Therapy Career, is a masterclass in empathy, cultural awareness, and the quiet power of showing up.
