Get your loved one’s fingerprint! I’m so glad the funeral home suggested it. That’s my dad’s fingerprint on my necklace - I’m so grateful to have it

Excited (and a little nervous) to be interviewed on Baltimore’s NPR station about palliative care!

This week's podcast: The Tyranny of Expectations. Holidays are packed w/ expectations. We create expectations like "everyone will get along and be pleasant over holiday break," get disappointed when our expectation aren't met & create unnecessary negativity & suffering. #holidaystress Link below

I see palliative care as symptom management + avoiding regret.

...decisions you made or didn't make
...relationships that you didn't mend.
...important conversations that you never got around to having.

I talk about avoiding regret on The Integrative Palliative this week (link in comments).

Being a caregiver is hard - even harder at the holidays. As a physician with expertise helping families cope with illness, I've made a program to help you provide excellent care to your loved one w/out losing yourself.

Normally $397 but for now only $37. You'll have access for a year+. Link below.

My dog gets her needs met. She has this “please please” thing for when she wants food/out/walk/cuddles.

She doesn’t withdraw if we don’t meet her needs with the first ask or assume that we don’t care and that her needs don’t matter. She tries a new person or a new way.

We can learn from dogs.

I’m a palliative care physician and medical educator and I’m happy to be here. I’d love to connect with other physicians, clinicians, and empathetic humans who care for the ill and aging #palliative #medsky #hospice #meded #illness #cancer #dementia
