I try to do this regardless of the technical medical details of cancers and treatment decisions and mutations, regardless of the slippery fiction of prognosis.
我试着不去在意癌症治疗技术层面的细节、方案,以及突变,不去想那不可靠的虚构预后(预后是指临床肿瘤医生根据临床数据推测的肿瘤患者的治疗有效率和生存时间)。
slippery [ˈslɪpəri] adj.滑的;滑得抓不住(或站不稳、难以行走)的;油滑的;滑头滑脑的;靠不住的;难以应对的;棘手的 fiction [ˈfɪkʃn] n. 小说;虚构的事,谎言;杜撰,编造 prognosis [prɑːɡˈnoʊsɪs] n. [医] 预后;预知
I try to learn what they want and what they need, what they wish and what they worry, what they dream about, what animated them before and what will sustain them during the beastly process of cancer treatment.
我试着去了解我的病人想要什么,他们需要什么,他们希望什么,他们担心什么,他们梦想着什么,在患上癌症前他们对什么最有热情,以及是什么可以支撑他们度过整个残酷的癌症治疗。
animate [ˈænɪmeɪt] adj. 有生命的,有活力的 v. 使生动,使兴奋;把……制作成动画;鼓动,激励;使有生命 beastly [ˈbiːstli] adj. 野蛮的;残忍的;可恶的 adv. 极,非常
It doesn't actually take that much time. It does take a few focused, quiet moments that require intentional cultivation. But this is partnership, and it matters, because the worst thing that can happen is to have an oncologist who does everything -- everything -- to help cure your cancer and who does nothing to help you live your life. Thank you.
其实这样的做法并不需要消耗非常多的时间,但确需要一些集中精力和沉静下来的时间,这是需要去刻意营造的,这种配合是有意义的,因为最坏的情况就是一位肿瘤科医生竭尽全力去医治你的癌症,却完全不做任何事情去帮助你过好你的人生。谢谢。
