Lessons from a mentor: a dance for two.
The powerful relationship between a teacher and student of nursing is described through stories that illustrate three lessons: (1) Caring gets results, (2) family comes first, and (3) passionate commitment is contagious. These are the lessons I learned from my mentor, Dr Cathie Guzzetta. Textbooks can tell part of a story, but the "dance for two" between a special teacher and a student can change perspectives and lives forever.
