摘要:
我的病人快三十岁了,因晚期肉瘤病患不治之症而瀕死。他来到我们医院,寻求奇迹——治愈他不可治愈的癌症。尽管听取了第二和第三个意见,他从未放弃对科学治愈他的希望。在这个故事中,我探讨了希望如何让我的病人和其他病人重新获得他们的叙述权,在面对严重疾病时保持他们的人格。 版权所有©2022 Elsevier Inc.。
My patient was in his late 20s and dying of an advanced sarcoma. He came to our institution seeking a miracle-a cure for his incurable cancer. Despite second and third opinions, he never relinquished his hope that science would cure him. In this story, I explore how hope allowed my patient, and others like him, to reclaim their narratives and maintain their personhood in the face of serious illness.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
