How doctors should deliver terminal news

Do you believe anything needs to change in the standard protocol of how doctors deliver terminal news? Totally. When I was in school, which was 20 years ago, they were just starting to teach like, hey, make sure you attend in the room. So like, if someone is crying, pause. Like, allow some space. It'll feel like a long time to you. It doesn't feel like a long time to them. And you can even say, I see the tears in your eyes and just leave it. Or you can say, like it's really sad. Like we were learning those skills. Even in it's like, you sort of assumption what hope to people, like hope means longer life. So I'm going to say that instead of saying like, you have six months to live because like, the studies, you say, like, it's likely a few months to a few years, which is like broader, but more accurate. And that's information for someone to decide, like, do they want to have a baby, you know, during this during this illness or not? And then similarly, our students, the best the worst case and the most likely case. People can people get a lot of information from that. Decide, like, what risk do to aim to prepare for the worst? They're kind of allowing for the best. In the meantime, you know, I'll make sure my family knows what I want. Doctors are being taught space, space, and more like accuracy. People can get a lot of information from that. Decide, like, what risk do to aim to prepare for the worst? They're kind of allowing for the best. In the meantime, you know, I'll make sure my family knows what I want.
