I often think back in awe to a paediatrician who administered chemotherapy to a young child as if they were playing a game.

The doctor inserted a butterfly Jelco with a plastic catheter into the child’s hand and connected a syringe. He drew some blood into the tubing.

“Look at the little red worm,” the doctor said, excitedly. 

“Now we are going to make him disappear back into his home.”
