About Wellness is a beautiful and powerful video message by Sarah Stewart Gomes that pays tribute to her mother, Jan Stewart , and warns viewers of the terrible toll that addiction can take on nurse anesthetists and their loved ones. Sarah's message struck a nerve and has been widely requested by directors of nurse anesthesia educational programs, state nurse anesthetist association presidents, peer assistance advisors, and members charged with and interested in creating awareness of addiction and other obstacles to wellness. It also speaks to ALL nurses about this devastating disease.
