Description Some weeks ago, I was in a hospital. I was despondent about beeing there, and I knew I could leave because of my critical condition. Worst of all, was because of the corona-situation, no one was able to visit the hospital and because of my condition, I could leave for more then 15 minutes. I was desperate tol leave, and when I first came to the hospital, I wasn't speaking or looking at anyone in the hospitalstaff. One day, a nurse came to contain a bloodsample and without looking at her, I just reached my arm at her. I hate needles and prepared myself for the pain, but was suprised when I realized that there were no pain at all. She was so gentle and after she got enought bllod, she remowed the needle and imedently apoligized for causing me pain. I was so suprised so I for the first time looked and speeked to her, saying" It did'nt hurt at all. I got eyecontact with her and I realized I haven't seen a person in the eyes for so many days, ad I started to cry. And then she did something more unexpected. She remowed her gloves and dried away my tears. And I cried even more, because it was so strange being comforted by someone without gloves, not being afraid of touching my tears. She told me that she would talk to the doctors to let me leave, and everything soon was going to be alright. She would help me to get home. I knew deep inside that she had no power at all to let me go home, but only the fact that she would at least try to help me (or lie to make me feel better), made me feel a little bit more safe. I thought, this person is absolutely the right person in the right place, taking care of the patients at this hospital. And it was almost as she could feel my pain and I could see her compassion shining throught her eyes. She was a bit older, a bit asian-looking and her hair was covered behind a hijab ( i think), but her eyes, contained a whole inner universe. I'm a little bit sad that I never got the time to thank her for her kindness, but I'm happy to know that she works with taking care of other humans. She gave me the idea to this drawing (even thou she doesn't look at all as the peron in this drawing).

For this drawing, I've used cpic markers and prismcolors on a A3 sized bristol-paper
