Description

Dr. Emily Podany is a hematology/oncology fellow who works with cancer patients and shares how connecting with her patient allowed her to support the patient's care goals.

Excerpt:

It was not the first time that she had been hospitalized for cancer.

Her hospitalizations before the diagnosis spread out behind her like little fires in her otherwise uncomplicated life - seemingly random until a doctor saw the full picture. She was diagnosed with cancer, and it grew furiously in her organs. Her doctors strained to keep up. Her husband and children called every specialist and traveled far and wide for the best treatment available. The word incurable followed her like a ghost, a prickle on the back of her neck…
