 Dr. Bonnie and Chaplain Gardner shared the story of Stone Soup with the patients and families. Stone Soup is a European folk story that has been passed down through generations. What would happen if an entire village worked together to make a huge pot of soup? It is a story of sharing. 

 “All you need is what you’ve got” is a verse from the song “Stone Soup by musician and storyteller Tom Chapin. In the folktale, stone soup starts as a stone in a pot of water. The townspeople share what they could spare by contributing an assortment of humble ingredients. A wholesome and delicious pot of soup is created! The finished soup is then shared and enjoyed by everyone.
