is part of a series of autobiographical case
reports about physicians reporting on their own medical afflictions in the medical journal, Cureus. In this unique account, I work with Dr. Andrés Martin, a psychiatrist who is confronted with an unexpected retinal detachment, and over the course of months, I help him to illustrate the strange yet compelling aftermaths of recovery: a shapeshifting bubble in his eye. Throughout this journey, we both discover how art can become a source of comfort, solace, and growth for the both of us.
