Being A Pagan Patient


Being a patient means that some of our strength and wellbeing is weakened. Even if we’re going in for elective surgery, arriving on the ward in good spirits and vigorous, just before we go to theatre and certainly when we come out we’re likely to feel a bit wobbly.

What happens to our soul during anaesthetic?
How do our Pagan beliefs help us when we consider our flesh under the knife, our metabolism being artificially altered with drugs?
Will we be safe to admit our Paganism without someone who has power over us getting excitable?
Will we considered mad, bad and dangerous to know?
What happens if I’m in hospital over a festival?

Going over some of the basics of Paganism can help.
