In this episode, Adrianne welcomes David Metzger, pediatric oncology nurse, podcaster, author, and father. He is gracious enough to open up about all of these roles, how they all blend together, and how he is using them to entertain and teach us.

David and Adrianne run through all the emotions in their talk, so settle in for this one. They discuss things like:
- What it’s like working with chronically ill children and their parents
- How a nurse handles the strong emotions of being around sick kids
- The way we communicate matters and memories of physical space
- Family-centered care and the intuition of parents
- The ritual of care after the death of a child
- How David hopes to reach parents with his perspective and advice
- The upcoming Nurse Papa book
...and much more.
