came across this article as i was reading an oncologist's blog.
Just say die
''Dying, which was once viewed as natural and expected, has become medicalized into an unwelcome part of medical care. ''
''Worse, death has become medicine's enemy—a reminder of our limitations of medical diagnosis and management.''
Patient's death, should not be treated as medical failure. it's terribly hard to lose a patient, and its even harder to tell a patient that he/she is going to die.
oncology. haishh.
