Charity Tillemann-Dick TED Talk

A really inspiring TED talk by a soprano who survived heart failure and a double lung transplant to sing again.



 She talks about the importance of treating the whole patient - of recognizing that giving patients the ability to fulfill goals and to be passionate about life is just as important, if not more so, than simply treating physical symptoms. My favourite line: "We need to stop letting disease divorce us from our dreams."

Love.
