1121202 (about cure)

縫縫補補又三年,

1.  Comfort Always


Today, we think of medicine primarily in terms of the interventions we can perform. “To cure sometimes, to relieve often, to comfort always” is a reminder that our role as comforter must provide the basis for our care regardless of whether we can relieve suffering or cure disease.

2. What about ‘time’? (It does take time for anything to change at all.)

3. What about failure and harm ?





4. What about the (damned) therapist’s (damned) desire ? In other words, he was damned twice, like Waiting for Godot, in two acts.
