Bearing Witness: Quilts and Stories Honoring Life in a Children's Hospital is a short volume of fourteen beautiful quilts and accompanying stories about Hliboki's experiences providing spiritual care to patients and families in a pediatric hospital. From the book's introduction, Each of the hundreds of children, families, and caregivers I ministered to forever changed me. They exposed the part of me that was willing to open myself over and over to unfathomable intimacy with complete strangers, and they with me. Many incidents brought me to my knees, figuratively and literally, and often to tears. These memories unleash a tenderness and compassion in me that leaves me feeling vulnerable and humbled, yet I have also gained strength and resiliency. I recognize that such stories are universal and can be found in hospitals around the world. My deep desire is that every child's story is cherished.
