Dr. Brian, a man with a servant's heart and the love for medicine saw each patient with much compassion and concern. There was several times he took a small child who was scared to death who may have never seen a doctor before and coaxed her or him ever so gentle to trust him with her or his care. Dr. Brian along with Maida and some other students made a home visit with an elderly man who was eighty two. He had a stroke two years ago. This gentleman worked the fields all his life to provide for his family. Two years ago the stroke kept him from working the fields. He felt as if he had failed his family. He could no longer provide for their physical needs. Dr. Brian took his callous hands and explained to him how they were a symbol of all he had done for his family. His hard work showed through the callouses his hand wore. Dr. Brian told him he was an amazing role model for his family. Dr. Brian encouraged him to let his family care for him now. Let your family give back to you what all you had given to them. At this time the team gathered around the gentleman and his family to pray for each of them. Haley shared how she could not hold back the tears as Dr. Brian prayed and shared with the gentleman and his family.
Jesus replied: "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'
