190

there was a case file in the critical care area...
which read
“do not let pt diagnosis be known to pt”
-


we went to talk to the old lady
-
in mandarin
speaking to us about compassion in medicine
about how we as students aspiring to be doctors
have compassion for the patients
-
a really nice person
-
“You guess how old I am?”
“...60+?”
“82 years”
-
no


Lung Cancer...
-
“Age
consider palliative care as an option”
-


medical attachment certainly is an eye-opener
something to think about I guess
