Summary

A conversation with Intensive Care Specialist, Clinical Ethicist and poet, Dr Melanie Jensen. Melanie is in the frontline of hospital work and spends her working life trying to save the lives of injured children. In these extreme circumstances, Melanie has turned to writing poetry as a sense-making activity. We speak about Melanie's book, 'All That Could Be Lost', finding your writing voice at talking points in our lives, visiting dark places and emerge feeling better and remembering, while grief may be in the air, happiness is too.
