Got my epidural yesterday. While the doctor was giving me the shot (took a couple of minutes), the nurse put her hand on my back. It was very comforting. Often I forget the power of a touch, thinking that words are the way to go. Nope — touch wins hands down (intentional).
The best part of being Santa is the White Gloves -- they allow you to gently touch shoulders and forearms, backs and cheeks, which ALWAYS brings a smile to people's faces!
