We present a body of evidence for love medicine, originating in the shamanic physical/spiritual healing arts, embodying end-of-life (EOL) palliation through relationships of loving, artful witness between caregivers and receivers. We base the conclusions of our professional (doctor) and familial (spouse) practices on the practitioner/research methodology, Appreciative Inquiry , focused on life-affirming experiences, and epitomizing love medicine in `building' relationship through artful narratives between caregiver and receiver (experiential model), to complement `taking' clinical histories (biomedical model). Our witness to these healing effects, supported by relevant literature, builds a body of evidence for the power of love in EOL care
