It is inspired by and directly draws upon elements from a portrait of a young dead woman by Egon Schiele. At the time, I was in the middle of a palliative care fellowship and personally recovering from a severe IBD flare. It is a meditation on birth, illness, joy, pain and death; an expression of awe as to how humans can simultaneously be wounded, age, heal, celebrate and create throughout the seasons of our lives.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1781263262716-QOS0FYPJTX4BRWRJUB5T/Hijano%2C+Diego.jpg Blog - Living Alongside Loss: A reflection on grief, rituals, and gratitude by Diego R.

Oil and colored pencil on canvas “The first time I saw a dead body was in the cadaver lab. Behind fogged glasses, I felt my chest tighten as I faced my willed donor. But soon after, I found myself dissecting layers of skin and rifling through organs with the detachment of studying pages of a textbook. Anatomy lab is a pivotal step in our medical education. In fragmenting the human body as deidentified pieces of knowledge, it guides our hands through the otherwise unseen subjects of disease and reinforces our interconnectedness. In ‘Seeds of Life,’ the flowers honor these physical bodies as vessels of the donors’ time on earth—reminders that, through their gift, our growth and our future patients’ healing take root.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1761944757861-17TLI5999G07DO8VI3UA/Lee%2C++Elli+Youngeun+.jpeg Blog - What Remains When the Body Is Taken Apart: A reflection on the educational ritual of anatomy class by Elli Lee - Make it stand out Elli Lee https://www.theintima.org/blog/baselines-by-rebecca-a-efroymson monthly 0.5 2026-03-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1761944741656-FYQGV39RX6V9TYJ7HDQ3/Efroymson%2C+Rebecca.jpg Blog - Baselines, Self-Exams and Thoughts about Mammograms: A reflection by Rebecca A.

Washington “Urgent, alarming, riveting, and essential, Carte Blanche reveals that Americans, including African Americans, are still being medically experimented upon without their consent—yet again in research sanctioned by law.

I’ll not soon forget the voices of these dedicated physicians, nurses, teachers, and technicians who treat their patients with humanity, compassion, and humility. I was riveted and moved by this collection." ― Wally Lamb, #1 bestselling author "Where it Hurts is a powerful anthology with its origins in caregiving, and the pain and suffering that invokes it. The humanity of these poems, stories, and essays makes for compelling reading, an opportunity for spiritual enlargement, and a reminder of why medicine is so much more than service." ― Thomas McGuane, author of A Wooded Shore and The Longest Silence "The honest, heartbreaking, and uplifting voices of doctors and nurses, EMTs and medical students not only bring us behind the scenes of surgeries and intubations and autopsies, but also let us into their hearts and minds, inviting us to bear witness to everything from the giggle of a pole dancing neurologist to the wailing of a mother who learns her baby has no heartbeat. This book will continue to echo long after you finish it." ― Ann Hood, bestselling author of The Knitting Circle and Comfort: A Journey Through Grief "Doctors and nurses are people too―multi-layered, mysterious human beings with complex emotional reactions to the care they provide and the patients they encounter. Ranging panoramically in perspective and tone―from the haunting experiences of adolescent psychiatric nurse Jennifer Anderson in “Managed Care,” to family physician Joanne Wilkinson’s confrontation with her own powerlessness to help a woman with advanced Alzheimer’s in “Invisible,” to infectious-disease doctor Ben Goldenberg’s charming paean to hospital gift shops, “For the Old Man Buying a Stuffed Giraffe”―this collection offers readers grand works of literature in miniature. Each piece is a perfect morsel of perception: a window into the soul of a caregiver and a mirror for the reader’s reflection. A testament to the power of narrative medicine, Where It Hurts belongs on every healer’s nightstand." ― Jacob M. Appel, MD, author of Who Says You’re Dead? "Where It Hurts gathers voices from the intimate, vital space between clinicians and patients, tracing the invisible threads that connect body and story. The writings in this collection reveal the emotional core of medicine―tender, raw, and deeply human." ― Danielle Ofri, MD, PhD, author of What Doctors Feel and editor-in-chief of Bellevue Literary Review "Gritty and abrasive. Brutally honest and forged with sweat equity and spilled blood. Where It Hurts is a collection of essays and poems that will seize your heart. Even when I wanted to retreat and calm my soul, I kept turning the pages. True stories of immeasurable grief and self-doubt tiled alongside the splendor of rebirth and the wonder of curiosity. This is writing performed by experts with lived experience, who know the guttural pain of fractured clinician-patient relationships and the holiness of covenant. What does it mean when your vocation puts you face-to-face with tensions born of racism and religious blindness? How do I as a physician reconcile my own judgements and righteous anger alongside my pledge to cure and care? My shame-induced isolation was broken and my pride exposed. Suicide, addiction, personal trauma, and moral injury. Glory, beauty, empathy, and love. Open the covers of Where It Hurts and all these will be yours. But be prepared. These words will occupy your mind and stir in you uncomfortable questions long after you’re done." ― Wes Ely, MD, physician-scientist and practicing intensivist at Vanderbilt University, and author of Every Deep-Drawn Breath "Where it Hurts masterfully spotlights the humanity, humility, and vulnerability of clinicians at the front lines of health care in the United States. Often portrayed in popular media as either superheroes or automatons, health care professionals wrestle with a battleground of universal emotions―self-doubt, fear of mortality, curiosity, tenderness, panic, love, and despair. Their candid stories offer a window into the messy, poignant, and meaningful facets of the human condition." ― Erica C. Kaye, MD, oncologist at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital "Where It Hurts cuts to the core of what it means to be a clinician today. From Rachel Kowalsky’s instructions for “Your First Pediatric Intubation”―with lurking dragons―to the unexpected poignancy of Trisha K. Paul’s “Stroppy Sevens,” each piece in this anthology examines the beauty, the challenges, and the emotional depth of caring for another person." ― Sneha Mantri, MD, Director of Medical Humanities at Duke University School of Medicine "Where It Hurts could easily have been called Where It Heals. The essays, short stories, and poems do not sugar coat the struggles of navigating illness. Yet somehow, the collection is a healing balm for anyone impacted by their own or someone else’s illness―which is to say anyone who is human." ― Elizabeth Lahti, MD, associate professor and director of narrative medicine at Oregon Health & Science University School of Medicine "Where It Hurts lifts the curtain on the hidden dramas of medicine. These essays and poems reveal the vulnerabilities, private reckonings, fears, and sheer joys of those on the front lines of medical care. A must-read for anyone going into a health care profession, or anyone who may need their services." ― Randi Hutter Epstein, MD, writer in residence and director of the Writing for the Public program at Yale University School of Medicine "This rich, compelling collection will help physicians, nurses, and their patients (who are, ultimately, all of us) learn important lessons about human nature and what it means to care for each other." ― Joel Howell, MD, PhD, director emeritus of the Medical Arts Program, University of Michigan Medical School "The nature of health and illness and the intimacies of our bodily experience are at once deeply personal and profoundly universal. Where It Hurts explores this fascinating terrain. This is a book for clinicians, educators, and anyone drawn to ponder this enterprise of living in our beautiful, perfectly imperfect bodies." ― Deepu Gowda, MD, assistant dean for medical education, Kaiser Permanente Bernard J. Tyson School of Medicine "The voices in this collection―wise, tender, funny, and vulnerable―pierce right to the heart of medicine, revealing those profound journeys that unfold in a moment when the stakes are high and humans care for other humans." ― Jay Baruch, MD, author of Tornado of Life: A Doctor's Journey through Creativity and Constraints in the ER "An extraordinary collection that highlights the intersection between medical mysteries and the mysteries of the human spirit. Each piece is provocative, inspiring, resonant, humane. Brilliantly curated, this collection offers profound, clear-eyed comment on our times and what is most crucial in our lives. A book to return to over and again for insight, compassion, and courage." ― Lou Ann Walker, editor-in-chief of The Southampton Review "The medical field can feel cold and impersonal to patients, and also to doctors, nurses, and others who work in health care. This book should be required reading for students, physicians, nurses, and anyone who has to deal with the health care system (and that includes all of us!). Highly recommended." ― David G. Thoele, MD, and Marjorie Getz, PhD, co-directors of the narrative medicine program at Advocate Health “This magnificent collection offers an intimate view of the heartbreak, compassion, awe, inspiration, frustration, and love that knit together the fabric of clinical practice. The authors’ eloquent voices reveal their deep understanding of themselves and of what it means to be human. Where It Hurts bears witness to the suffering of those we care for as well as the challenging, sacred work of healing.”—Pamela Schaff, MD, PhD, director of the MS in Narrative Medicine program at USC’s Keck School of Medicine https://www.theintima.org/friction5 daily 0.75 2015-09-10 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1441228437464-N91YIKZVDZFRCPGKC0HV/intima-fall-2015-kriota-willberg Friction5 https://www.theintima.org/living-in-between daily 0.75 2015-09-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1441915974575-2WTJ022LTW4HK4HX7Z16/Fall2015Intima-Living+in+Between Living In Between Living In Between.

Through writing, drawing, performance, and needlework, she focuses on the intersection between body sciences and creative practice. She has an MFA in Interdisciplinary Arts from Goddard College. "Root Canal" appeared in the Spring 2013 Intima. "My needlework attempts to create emotional attachment to disconnective medical imagery of the body," says Willberg. "Looking upon the most hidden representations of people we love via the MRI, x-ray, or ultrasound, it is often difficult to resolve those images with our emotional connection to that person. Using traditional domestic materials, the imagery created in my needlepoint is intended to connect and intermix the sentimental attachment one feels to family heirlooms, portraiture, and ephemera, with the desire for attachment and intimacy we often experience when gazing upon the clinical image of a beloved unborn child, or a loved one’s internal structures."   https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1426968494180-CSO3HCUJY3D6MG39QGQC/531346438135270614_a_priceless_gift.jpg Studio Art to 2013 - A PRICELESS GIFT Hena Ahmed is an M.D. candidate at Harvard Medical School with interests in neuroscience, global health, and visual arts.

The overall hue and expression is dark because, although the physician means well, based on the dialogue, his immediate response was to provide reassurance based on the facts and figures instead of asking questions about what the diagnosis could actually mean to the patient. All the physician did was to brush it off by saying “This is common, don’t worry.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1633989707658-R2KIEZEY9AUDR82U8ZXX/%C2%A9+If+Only+2+by+Julie+Hwang+Fall+2021+Intima.png If Only | Julie Hwang In the second image, the smaller pictures symbolize attempts at finding a “cure.” The mosaic includes a scene from a clinical case study meeting, the operating room, a medical conference and imagery of fellows and residents making rounds at the inpatient unit. However, in the first image, the patient is anxious and confused, with medical jargon, complex procedures and talk of medical research overwhelming her. The two pictures indicate how medicine can often be intimidating for patients when the sole focus and what is communicated to the patient is the scientific knowledge and skills. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1633989752370-L3TBGWSIBYXELL35MW6B/%C2%A9+If+Only+3+by+Julie+Hwang+Fall+2021+Intima.png If Only | Julie Hwang The image to the right is a little less somber in terms of the hue because it is taking a step towards integrating care into medical treatment. The old photographs represent information available to the physician from the very first encounter. The physician knew my grandmother’s basic family history of her sister's death. As she was about to explain to him her concerns related to her sister’s death and the procedure, he cut her off and went into the medical details of the procedure instead. Because he didn’t give her time to express her concerns, he never found out about why she was afraid: not because of the procedure itself but her trauma associated with contrast dye and CT scans. This highlights how oftentimes, the patient-physician dialogue stops short because the physician interrupts the patient. In fact, several studies show that doctors cut off a patient after eight seconds, on average, when the patient is telling their story. When zoomed out from the smaller squares, my grandmother is still a confused and apprehensive patient. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1633989758012-A8V2CBLMDU7CFSS869NY/%C2%A9+If+Only+4+by+Julie+Hwang+Fall+2021+Intima.png If Only | Julie Hwang The final image, the first one to have a lighter feel, is the one that captures the idea of curing the disease and caring for the person. It’s what the patient hopes for: to be viewed not as a pathology, a diagnosis, or an intriguing case, but an individual with a story to tell. The images include pictures from previous mosaic pieces, the aspects of medicine that my grandmother needs as a patient: the science and technical aspects of medicine. However, it also includes new images shedding light onto who my grandmother is as a person: the final picture she took with her sister and the friends she spent time with after her sister’s death. https://www.theintima.org/pain-scale-for-chronic-patients-sal-marx daily 0.75 2021-10-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1634009313415-VZ9K7LBWQI2L6U1L4573/%C2%A9+Pain+Scale+for+Chronic+Patients+MindBody+by+Sal+Marx.png Pain Scale for Chronic Patients | Sal Marx - MindBody © Pain Scale for Chronic Patients ‘MindBody’ by Sal Marx Fall 2021 Intima: A Journal of Narrative Medicine https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1634009312839-KNS5VLOQTYLM1CNR78Q1/%C2%A9+Pain+Scale+for+Chronic+Patients+BodyMind+by+Sal+Marx+Fall+2021+Intima.png Pain Scale for Chronic Patients | Sal Marx - BodyMind © Pain Scale for Chronic Patients ‘BodyMind ‘by Sal Marx Fall 2021 Intima: A Journal of Narrative Medicine https://www.theintima.org/when-womens-health-is-not-inclusive-enough-swygert-nall-et-al daily 0.75 2021-10-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1634066966103-1ZG5SDZWCPH3KOEOY4Z7/Screen+Shot+2021-10-12+at+2.27.50+PM.png When ‘Women’s Health’ is Not Inclusive Enough | Swygert, Nall, et al - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.theintima.org/truth-reconciliation-and-racial-unification-olamide-adejumo daily 0.75 2021-10-15 https://www.theintima.org/mental-health-stigma-rooted-in-korean-culture-julie-hwang daily 0.75 2021-10-13 https://www.theintima.org/desecratedresanctify-shivani-bhatia daily 0.75 2021-10-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1634236405309-HGY3IDHOLCB2TYU8EG5V/%C2%A9+Desecrate-Resanctify+by+Shivani+Bhatia+Fall+2021+Intima.jpg Desecrated-Resanctify | Shivani Bhatia - Make it stand out © Desecrated-Resanctify by Shivani Bhatia Fall 2021 Intima: A Journal of Narrative Medicine https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1634241020426-E5M4GB3ME3R64161WAH0/%C2%A9+2+Desecrated-Resanctify+by+Shivani+Bhatia.jpg Desecrated-Resanctify | Shivani Bhatia - Make it stand out © Desecrated-Resanctify by Shivani Bhatia Fall 2021 Intima: A Journal of Narrative Medicine https://www.theintima.org/anatomy-lab-joshua-atlas daily 0.75 2022-05-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1651586607523-JNB5SL8TLR27XBHOCTVH/%C2%A9+Anatomy+Lab+by+Joshua+Atlas+1.jpg Anatomy Lab | Joshua Atlas https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1651586606076-R34Y9O1P94DZO1DV5KE5/%C2%A9+Anatomy+Lab+by+Joshua+Atlas+2.jpg Anatomy Lab | Joshua Atlas https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1651586610512-XXXEMHVF0QPMM38BHZOT/%C2%A9+Anatomy+Lab+by+Joshua+Atlas+3.jpg Anatomy Lab | Joshua Atlas https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1651586609785-IW1VYQ5UECWJ9RLD3LW3/%C2%A9+Anatomy+Lab+by+Joshua+Atlas+3b.jpg Anatomy Lab | Joshua Atlas https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1651586609033-R3NDZCX72PFHFB3A3O6X/%C2%A9+Anatomy+Lab+by+Joshua+Atlas+4.jpg Anatomy Lab | Joshua Atlas https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1651586608448-HTR7W7KDMWDS8ZJSDMYI/%C2%A9+Anatomy+Lab+by+Joshua+Atlas+6.jpg Anatomy Lab | Joshua Atlas https://www.theintima.org/coat-of-arms-zachary-jacobs daily 0.75 2022-05-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/2c10ad47-fb32-46e6-83c7-50dffd42223d/%C2%A9+Coat+of+Arms+by+Zachary+Jacobs+Spring+2022+Intima.jpg Coat of Arms | Zachary Jacobs - Make it stand out © Coat of Arms by Zachary G.

During this course, I spent a lot of time thinking about the intersections of health and religion that I had witnessed in my patient experiences, particularly when it came to new diagnoses. This sculpture was created as a result of these memories, as well as in the context of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652050798768-I7ASBE86UILXMYCRXQUH/%C2%A9+Facing+a+New+Diagnosis2+-+Gavisha+Waidyaratne+Spring+2022+Intima.jpg Facing a New Diagnosis | Gavisha Waidyaratne The text reads as follows: "What will happen to me?

As an artist, I found myself drawn to all the images included in my lectures, and then on the wards I found myself even more deeply drawn to the radiology reading rooms throughout the hospital. I became interested in how radiographs serve as distilled moments of a human narrative, an illness experience in greyscale. It felt both incredibly elegant but also painfully brief to me. So I turned to my studio to investigate my personal relationship to these images. I wanted to turn off the "objective" answers we often look for in medical images I was being trained to find as a medical student and instead turn on a more emotional response to the grey shapes and shadows that I collected from the wards. Each piece's composition references actual images I saw of my patients. I focused on shapes and transparencies that interested me, choosing to lean into abstraction as a way to acknowledge the depth and what I perceived as an "uncapturability" of everything in a medical narrative. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652301982902-CAKK03O0Y0G0L56AZPDS/%C2%A9+Remnant+1+by+Tia+Forsman+Spring+2022+Intima.jpg Remnant | Tia Forsman I am applying to radiology residencies and know my future career will involve shifting constantly between the objective, medical evidence in images and the emotional, subjective nature of what an image means to a patient in their illness journey. A CT scan, MRI or chest X-ray can be a punctuating event for any patient, and I use my art practice to remind myself of that intimate moment of clarity (one I personally experienced when a close family member of mine was unexpectedly hospitalized during my second year of medical school and all of my family's hopes seemed to hinge on the results of a single brain MRI). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652301983615-9INMQO9IREYQKN88A7OM/%C2%A9+Remnant+6+by+Tia+Forsman+Spring+2022+Intima.jpg Remnant | Tia Forsman These pieces all speak to the focus of the Intima journal in that they aim to introduce tenderness, uncertainty and empathy to the medical radiologic image, an object in medicine that is usually otherwise seen as cold and clinical. I am interested in the grey areas, the overlaps and the blurry edges that continually humble me both as a future physician and an artist. © Remnant Series by Tia Forsman Spring 2022 Intima https://www.theintima.org/the-rhythm-that-binds-us-viswanath-veesh-swamy daily 0.75 2022-05-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1b7fc01e-d578-4c4d-a01f-3e03cd5039d2/%C2%A9+The+Rhythm+That+Binds+Us+by+Veesh+Swamy+Spring+2022+Intima.JPG The Rhythm That Binds Us | Viswanath 'Veesh' Swamy - Make it stand out © The Rhythm That Binds Us.

He was a creative and handyman, working as an architect and once upon a time owning a jewelry-making business. He often built us beautiful wooden gifts for Christmas, many of which we still have and treasure to this day. These were small glimpses into who he was, how he saw the world, what he valued, how he expressed himself. If you could look past the precisely stained and carved wood, you could see how he had spent days, weeks, months on making something priceless and one of a kind just for you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652496039560-QR4GKNPM6CKW72BIPW59/Treasures+Disguised+as+Negatives+3+Gurganious+Spring+2022+Intima.JPG Treasures Disguised as Negatives | Gurganious The pictures we recovered showed even more of this, many that showed him tooling leather on his hospital bed and his pictures of himself or the world behind him in the bathroom mirror. These photos felt like one last gift from him. It was especially meaningful to digitize these and share them with our family, his children, so they too could get this intimate look into his life, before any of us even existed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652496444420-1JIAFPIW0O1V2FR1U5W5/%C2%A9+Treasures+Disguised+as+Negatives+Gurganious+7+Spring+2022+Intima.JPG Treasures Disguised as Negatives | Gurganious Photos taken by our Grandfather, a Navy Sailor, who spent 1946 and subsequent years in the VA hospital battling Tuberculosis. Photos were taken with an Argus C3 camera with Llford HP2 Film. A glimpse into the not so distant past shows just how much healthcare has evolved and yet, remained the same. The environment may appear different, but the people are still people, still humans in need of care, compassion, community and laughter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652496037574-5ZDPPYHUBO2SS8MMF8O3/Treasures+Disguised+as+Negatives+6+Gurganious+Spring+2022+Intima.JPG Treasures Disguised as Negatives | Gurganious Imagine as healthcare providers if we took the time to know our patients in these ways, beyond their diagnosis, lab results or vital signs. If we knew how they expressed themselves, how they saw life, how they interpreted and showed love or feelings. These photos show a time when hospitals looked very different than what we have today. Large open wards of beds, side by side, where patients and staff basically lived in the same world and could more authentically share in these moments and know one another. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652496040900-UPEEHAL6P8YFPX9TFY0J/Treasures+Disguised+as+Negatives+4++Gurganious+Spring+2022+Intima.JPG Treasures Disguised as Negatives | Gurganious Our environment has certainly changed but the people, the patients and those who care for them, we would argue that not so much has changed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/54bc1287e4b09cb81d8d8439/1652496038032-MIOP5PDJ3KI4CRPLXFKQ/Treasures+Disguised+as+Negatives+5+Gurganious+Spring+2022+Intima.JPG Treasures Disguised as Negatives | Gurganious Look past what you see or hear at first pass and you may just stumble upon something hidden in plain sight.

Inspired by the themes of trust, purpose and collaboration that “define a hospital’s inhabitants,” the artist, who is a fourth-year medical student at Baylor, “used light and color to reframe the hospital as a place of sacred duty.” © Hidden Lore: Stepping Into the Light Annie Chen.

While there, I encountered the reality of pregnant women in custody and was struck by stories of women being cuffed to hospital beds during labor.
