| Sally Bailey |
Subsequent to individual interviews with Florence Wald (nurse), and Morris Wessel (paediatrician), during which art therapist/chaplain
Sally Bailey 'drops by', this interview gathers the group together to reflect on their experience of hospice through their
work at the New Haven Hospice Home Care Programme in Connecticut, USA. Sally Bailey opens with comments about the bonding
spirit of openness in the hospice movement, which prompts memories of how they all came together at New Haven. The conversation
then evolves to include discussion of euthanasia, news of their old friend, Cicely Saunders, the handover from pioneers to
the second generation, life before the impact of St Christopher's, and public opinion of hospice in the USA and Britain.
