3/29 fieldnote

 

        這周是我們第一次參與文建站的活動,我和Annabelle見到了李金妹、李金蘭阿嬤兩姊妹,還有何秀妹阿嬤。金蘭阿嬤的五官深邃,總覺得看起來有點酷;金妹阿嬤看起來很聰明,而且相當健談,說話很有條理;秀妹阿嬤則是非常的活潑可愛,說話有很多生動的小動作。

The stakeholders are Dr. Atul Gawande, other healthcare professionals, and the patients with terminal illnesses. They have to decide what the patient's priorities are, treatment options, and basically how much time and quality of life patients are willing to trade for extended years to live. Is the treatment making the patient worse or better? Doctors have to put themselves in a position of vulnerability by personally getting to know their patients, and deal with the guilt and blame if their treatments aren't successful or what they had said to the patient's family.
