‘Twas the night before Christmas

 

 

‘Twas the night before Christmas and all through the clinic

Dr. Ellis was busy, he had not even a minute.

The chemo was hung by the recliners with care,

In hopes that some cures could soon be found there;

 

Patients were nestled all safe in their places,

While I-Pods and headsets put smiles on their faces.

And Iris with her ED book and so many to reach,

There was no time to waste, she was off to go teach.

 

Something for everyone, programs for all,

If she can’t see you now, Lynne Groeger will call.

With dietary tips of various kinds,

Good health and nutrition are always on her mind.

 

Family support & palliative care,

Had a bag full of goodies they wanted to share.

Like Home Care and Hospice and oh, so much more,

Martha and Mary had one busy door!

 

Music, Massage, Meditation, “The Connection,”

Sent Integrative Services in all directions.

The folks at the front desks were kind and efficient,

As Billing checked to be sure PCI’s finances were sufficient!

 

Then out in the lobby there arose such a clatter,

We all went to see just what was the matter.

“The cookies are gone,” said Wanda in shock,

“Who could it be? It must be that DOC!”

 

Away to the doorway she flew like a flash,

And caught Dr. T just hiding his stash.

The look on his face was a sight to behold,

“They’re cookies for Santa,” was the tale that he told.

 

When, what to our wondering eyes did we see,

Ora Mae, Jenny & Kay, oh those three!

Research, their passion, statistics galore,

New clinical trials, who could ask for more.
