Is this because there should be cooperation between both forms of healing or because he wants his talents only to be resorted to when traditional medicine fails?

PS: I had read this great story when it was first published. I read it again today as I sent it to Anne to indicate the bona fides of your sound-healing recommendation, which I hope she will act on as she seemed quite down yesterday on prospects for recovery — I think she’s been quite overwhelmed. As I type this, Marissa is being transferred to a nursing home/rehab center as opposed to a higher-level center Anne had hoped for. The good news is it’s only 50 yards from Anne’s home.
