Over the years patients and colleagues have given me little gifts which I’ve collected in this box which sits next to my chair in my consulting room. In some ways I’ve thought of it as my little “cabinet of curiosities“.
It’s often a talking point, but the recently one five year old girl came into my room, made a bee line for the box and squealed “Ooh! Treasure!”
I hadn’t thought of it as a treasure box until then, but that’s what it is.
Have you a treasure box? If not, why not start one? What would you put in it?
