Black isn’t a doctor but a music therapist (心理治疗师). Back in2019, the nursing team asked if she could reach out to a _________ who seemed to be struggling and was unwilling to _________ the staff or be part of any activities. “They told me, ‘He’s bad-_________, and we wonder if you might have a(n) _________.”
So, on a _________ afternoon, Black approached the patient’s room and _________ herself. She asked if she could _________, and offered to play some music.” If you don’t like it, you can _________ me to leave, she said.
After some gentle _________, the 70-year-old man told her a few classical composers he __________ and then turned away at the bare branches __________. But as she started to play one of his favorites, Bach, the man turned back and started to cry. Black __________ the music. “Do you want me to continue?” she asked. “Absolutely,” he said through __________. “He shared with me afterward that he had been __________ so much and had been unable to talk about anything, but the __________ showed up like a hug,” recalls Black.
