Summary

This quote suggests that when someone is sick, we need to respect their space and allow them the privacy and care they deserve. The "foot of the bed" represents a position symbolically reserved for a guardian angel, implying that when someone is ill, it is not our place to intrude or interfere excessively. Instead, we should provide support and comfort from a respectful distance, allowing the healing process to take its course naturally.
