shut from the intrusion of the wise and humane

surgeon."   -- Sir John Eric Ericksen, British surgeon, appointed Surgeon-Extraordinary to Queen Victoria 1873.

Recovery to Resilience….

Recovery is moving away from….while resilience is moving

toward.

RESILIENCE….defined: Resilience is the ability to bounce back,

recover and develop a stronger capacity to respond to adversities in the future.

Resilience is actually less about bouncing back than it is about springing forward to something greater than we were before!
