One woman, who I happen to be Jewish, she happened to be Catholic, turned to me one day and said, Dr. Miller, I have some very heavy news.
They will be sending me away upstate, which means no longer will she be living in Manhattan, struggling through the revolving door of treatment, but is really being sent away.
She said, will you come with me?
I need to talk to you.
And come with me meant walk down the hall, leave the offices, enter the kitchen, go way, way back into the pots and pans closet.

We prayed she and her way.
I prayed in my way.
And what I saw was a great peace and a comfort coming over her.
I didn't know how to pray her way, but I knew how to be with her in a common state of spiritual love and support.
The next day I showed up, Shankar.
Her bed was made.
