Ups and downs of hospital magic

Postby dksokol » Jun 15th, '06, 11:33



Dear all,

In case any of you are interested, here's a piece on the ups and downs of performing magic in a hospital for adult patients: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/5071308.stm

Once again, I'd love to hear about any of your experiences doing hospital magic! I think we can learn a great deal from each other.

Regards,

Daniel

:) diksokol.Daniel, On Google type in Healing of Magic. You will get the Spencers QWebsite(USA) They have even put out a video tape and manual. There was a 7 page article on them & Hospital magic in The Linking RingMay 1999, Vol 79 Number 5, pages 51 to 57. In the article, there is a chapter on How to Begin and they state the healing of magic Web site can provide written information in the form of FAQ sheet.
Hope this helps.

:) Daniel. There is also a little discussion on Hospital Magic on Magic Bunny ( just discovered it on my first ever visit) It's under General Magic Discussion.

That is very good of you to dedicate your time each week to perform for the sick.

Very inspirational.

Bet after a while it gets hard to find new tricks to show them lol!
