[Compassion in Dying @AGoodDeath]

‘They lost their battle with cancer.’

How do you feel about war metaphors and cancer?

They make @Liz_ORiordan angry.

‘As a doctor, it didn’t bother me. But the minute I became a cancer patient I suddenly hated the war terminology.’

The group found 20+ words for ‘acceptance’ - is it any wonder patients and families struggle to understand what’s meant by the term, asks @TraceClipsHugs

[LOROS Hospice @LOROSHospice]

Interesting discussion on anxiety in palliative patients - it’s a symptom rather than a cause of distress says @TraceClipsHugs and a normal response to stress

[LOROS Hospice @LOROSHospice]

Fascinating training course on psychological needs running today in @LOROSEducation

[LOROS Hospice @LOROSHospice]
