Circle of Care — An Interview with Henry Fersko-Weiss

“Perhaps accepting imperfection is a meta principle—a principle that trumps others, because it reminds us that living and dying have their own inherent current that carries us along. We can’t understand it all or control it, although we can at times follow its flow. As doulas, we have to let go of the need to get every interaction right. We have to accept the imperfection of the people we work with, and the imperfection of the dying processes we bear witness to.”

—Henry Fersko-Weiss
