Patients, when hearing the news, mostly remain mute. (One of the early meanings of patient, after all, is
"one who endures hardship without complaint."
Whether out of dignity or shock, silence usually reigns, and so holding a patient's hand becomes the mode of communication. A few immediately harden (usually the spouse, rather than the patient) "We're gonna fight and beat this thing, Doc." The armament varies, from prayer to wealth to herbs to stem cells. To me, that hardness always seems brittle, unrealistic optimism the only alternative to crushing despair. In any case, in the immediacy of surgery, a warlike attitude fit. In the OR, the dark gray rotting tumor seemed an invader in the fleshy peach convolutions of the brain, and I felt real anger (Got you, you fucker, I muttered). Removing the tumor was satisfying even though I knew that microscopic cancer cells had already spread throughout that healthy-looking brain. The nearly inevitable recurrence was a problem for another day. A spoonful at a time. Openness to human relationality does not mean revealing grand truths from the apse; it means meeting patients where they are, in the narthex or nave, and bringing them as far as you can.

📘わたしが去年医学英語検定に向けて学び、
今年から読書を習慣目標に、洋書も読み出すようになりました。
そして、この本では、以前学んだ単語にもたくさん出会えたこと、
医療現場と患者家族の苦悩もイメージができたこと、
それが完読につながりました。

この本を音読２回目で、
録音、発信を挑戦中です。




📘私が音読の配信を始めるきっかけは
#1の放送でお話しています。

継続して、緊張感は少しもちつつ、
配信のプレッシャー感じながら
英語に毎日触れるためです。

1人言のように話しています。
ふと我に返り、録音していることを
思い出し、等身大の私です。

事前準備なく衝動的にとりあえずやり始めました。
英語学習先の目標は、
１、私が楽しく学び続けることで幸せを感じること、
2、医療現場での、コミュニケーション、相手への安心感に繋げたい気持ちです。

【自己紹介】はご興味あれば、
プロフィール欄に記載しています。

ここまで、読んでくださりありがとうございます😭



よろしくお願いします🙇‍♀️

When Breath Becomes Air ポール・カラー・ニッサンの本の96ページ

Patients, when hearing the news, mostly remain mute.

One of the early meanings of patient, after all, is one who endures hardship without complaint.

Whether out of dignity or shock, silence usually reigns,

and so holding a patient's hand becomes the mode of communication.

A few immediately harden, usually the spouse, rather than the patient.

We're gonna fight and beat this thing, Doc.

The armament varies from player to wealth to herbs to stem cells.

To me, that hardness always seems brittle.

Unrealistic optimism the only alternative to crushing despair.

In any case, in the immediacy of surgery, a warlike attitude fit.

In the OR, the dark gray rolling tumor seemed an invader in the fleshy peach convolutions of the brain

and I felt real anger.

Got you, you fucker, I mattered.

Removing the tumor was satisfying,

even though I knew that microscopic cancer cells had already spread throughout that healthy-looking brain.

The nearly inevitable recurrence was a problem for another day, a spoonful at a time.

Openness to human relationality does not mean revealing ground truths from the apes.

Apes? It means meeting patients where they are, in the narthex or nave, and bringing them as far as you can.
