My Healing Protocols™
Medicine has protocols for treating disease. You can have protocols for what you choose.
When you enter the medical world, there are protocols for almost everything.
Protocols for testing.
Protocols for diagnosis.
Protocols for surgery.
Protocols for medications.
Protocols for treatment and follow-up care.
But there is another person in the room.
You.
What do you believe?
What matters to you?
How do you make important decisions?
How do you want information communicated?
What role does prayer play in your care?
Who do you want beside you?
What helps you feel safe, respected and heard?
Those questions matter, too.
That is why My Healing Protocols™ were created.
