In medicine, we don’t say “I love you.” We say “It’s not unreasonable,” and I think that’s beautiful.

In a family meeting, after you explained the situation is worse, I see many doctors ask,

"What would he WANT?"

I think this is a BAD question, although I'm aware it is well-intentioned.

I will tell you why...(thread)

Somehow we weathered and witnessed
A nation that isn't broken
but simply unfinished
There is always light
if only we're brave enough to see it
if only we're brave enough to be it.

@ABRezMed I feel like spending 1-2 initial days on LRs and pre-test and post-test and basic approach to bayesian reasoning with case-based examples is very useful.

Something I think about every single day.

[Samuel Brown @DrSamuelBrown]

Once a year I give a lecture to the 2d year medical students on humanizing intensive care. It's fun to be with these bright young people moving toward careers as physicians. One asked me an interesting and important question that seems like it's worth reflection.
