The Story of Healing

Narrative and stories are an important aspect of medicine that needs to be utilized more. (p. 111).

Dr. Rita Charon noticed everything she did as a doctor revolved around stories: patients explaining their ailments, doctors telling their own stories, illness unfolding as narrative. But narrative was not in med school curriculum. She worked with Columbia University to include classes like this in the curriculum. (p. 112-113).

Main Idea of Chapter: "We are our stories. we compress years of experience, thought, and emotion into a few conpact narratives that we convey to others and tell to ourselves...we must listen to each other's stories and that we are each the authors of our own lives" (Pink, 2006, p.115).
