With Wings Widespread is a reflective
journal about care and counseling in an acute psychiatric
setting. It offers a glimpse into what goes on in the hearts
and minds of patients, families, and professionals as they
go about the business of experiencing and helping others
manage difficult life experiences.
For
twenty-two years, Dr. McCall kept a poetry journal and in
the latter years of her ministry in that setting began the
arduous task of reflecting upon her life's work. She shares
these reflections openly and respectfully in this journal in
the hopes that what she learned would be of help to others.
In With Wings Widespread, one finds
reflections about aging, mental illness, and healthcare. One
also finds thoughts about teamwork, collegiality, and
personal and workplace stress. There are joyful reflections
and painful moments of grief. There are internal struggles
and there are moments of insight and epiphany.
Readers who pick up these reflections may use the material
to jog their memories, infuse their spirits, and see the
value in their experiences. Those who may feel tired,
isolated, and even lonely may connect with the experiences
presented here and hopefully others will put together a
collection of their own reflections.
