Lucy’s story was one that I also felt rather deeply connected to. I too picked up on the normalcy of her death. This kind of reminded me back to the first reading (I believe) in this course where we discussed the numbness associated physicians when it came to patient death and how this affected third-year medical-students for the rest of their medical affiliated lives. The doctor-patient relationship is very critical as we’ve also learned throughout this course so this was also very interesting to see how this aspect played out in the course of this text. Overall, this is a really great forum post and its really clear to see how so many discussions in class wrapped up in singular text! Thank you for sharing 🙂
