A difficult exchange Photo by Riccardo Chiarini on Unsplash She was one of those patients who remind me of my own daughters, who make me consider up close what it would feel like to watch a terrible disease process insidiously take over my own child’s body. Her cancer had spread and she was struggling to breathe. The team had told the parents it was likely we might have to give her a breathing tube before my shift was over.
