Summary:Rosenberg narrates her experiences of being a palliative care consultant and for spending weeks as a general internal medicine attending physician, a teaching role that she relished above all other educational commitments. She also shares how she finds teachable moment as communicating a cognitive frame, suggesting a new way of seeing, or offering a 10, 000 foot of view of the winding trajectory of a serious illness. She also adds the mystery of dying that make many physicians uncomfortable and how the profession is burnout of a tradition of empiricism of knowing by seeing and questions from families that cannot be answered by quoting facts.
