    When my mom had cancer, she was her palliative care director. Everything she’s saying is who she is. She fought for my mom who was to scared to face what was happening to her. She did so much for me in getting my mom home to pass away. She was so real. So human. So funny and kind and just having her genius opinion to trust meant everything to us. She also worked closely with the hospice agency she connected us with and made sure things went well. A true angel. I hope she’s surgeon general someday. Genius. Pure genius

    When I first heard her speak in another YT video on Paliative Care, I was immediately impressed with how calm and concisely she spoke. She is genuinely a kind hearted person, who fortunately is also a wonderful physician.

    Having watched the guardian piece recently, hearing Dr Puri speak with the nuance that is needed for such deep conversations that I am sure there is little time to prepare, is mezmerising, and highly compassionate.

    Being 'honest' about what you believe is happening for a person medically and what you believe their life span is due to it.... and their potential for a miracle, is better left to your self. Sharing that, limits your patient. My mother was diagnosed with end stage 4 liver disease and stage 3 colon cancer. No one expected her to survive the liver issues. She did. And went on to treat her colon cancer, which they also did not expect her to survive. And she did. So.... it is invaluable to allow a patient their own path toward healing while you support them. You dont' have to give hope if you are uncomfortable with that... but you certainly dont have to take it away from them by being honest with your own thoughts and feelings about their want or need or optimism for a miracle, is. Sometimes, they get the miracle.
