Austin, Tx. - April 22, 2008 - Though not in the direct healing arts himself, after graduation from the University of Houston-Clear Lake, Adan started work as an arts person, helping patients on a locked nursing floor. “UHCL was a great college, where I was able to build my own arts and humanities program; then, in my first job after college, in Galveston, helping people through the arts at UTMB, was itself creative and wonderful.”

Humor and appreciation alternate and permeate in many of Adan’s posted works, including “Home Health Nurse.” “My dad needed a lot of care at home his last few years, and the various nurses and therapists that came by were always a welcome warm sight, ” says Adan.

Weekly, both new and older work are posted online, encouraging the interested reader to return again. Future nursing poems include “ER Nurse” and “Geriatric Nurse”.

Blending his feeling of the nurse’s and teacher’s close bond for healing and teaching, is Adan’s short poem, “School Nurse.”

Update: The first full eBook collection of poems, for sports, is being assembled for release later this year.  New information is posted on Adan’s eBook page on his website.
