I know he's new, and I know I'm going to sound like I'm gushing here, but has anyone worked with this guy yet? I think he's one of the best additions to the Brinkvale staff in a while. No one else treats the patients like real people like he does. You get out of line with any of the other staff, they'll just smile and write a note on their pads and order you some trank or something. Zach tells you to knock it off -- just as any of us would do with someone on the outside. He's enthusiastic, he really knows his arm, and when he's talking to you, you've got his whole attention. I hope Brinkvale appreciates what they found in him.

Christ. Whyncha get a room, already?



Give him time. He's still fresh and young and remembers what the sun looks like. In three or four months he'll be just like the rest of them.

What they've got is a kid who can draw and thinks that's enough to save the world. He's got no real professional credentials and sometimes seems like he's just barely keeping his head above water. Plus, the way he looks sometimes, I'm pretty sure he knows more about the deep secrets of Brinkvale than he wants to.

As much as I hate to agree with Kruggie, you're going too far, Avenger.

Look, Taylor's not perfect, and given time he'll end up like the rest of them, but right now, the Baron's nailed the commitment part right on the head. Taylor would give you his right arm if he thought it would help you draw better.

For whatever that's worth.

And how exactly does that Art Therapy work? Did anyone work with him, and did it help you out a lot? I'm just not completely sure art is the way to help a patient.

What if I can't draw? I'm a knitter, does that count? Zach, can you check my stitches to see if I might be crazy? just asking, Teresa aka Willowii

I think we all need to give Zach Taylor a lot of credit for his work and I believe some of us are missing the point here...
