This is a question related not to your personal knowledge rather a global failure of communication. What is the description that comes to mind of the term "palliative care" There are no mistakes here this is just gathering of what has been poorly misrepresented. Thanks ya! M

There is nothing else we can do, and we don’t know how long this person has, so we will try to make things as comfortable as possible in whatever time they have left, for both you and them.

Thanks Angie his answers have been so interesting to me I'm looking forward to speaking more with folks who are interested in the topic in the next few days as we are able to stop as mentioned highly marginalized in medicine across the world in terms of discipline.

Very interesting response thank you keep them coming exactly what I'm going for here I think as people read through they'll see it's a rather standard list and unclear environments with context region Nation person something things involved and how the term is used. Good stuff

my views on palliation are informed by uncommon circumstances, but; palliative care is basically "live with it, or don't, it's not going away but you don't have to have a bad time about it"

I'd be fascinated and honored to better know what you mean by "uncommon circumstances." The answer is quite subjective, but is not the experience of being born, living and dying also? :) Thanks for the compelling response!

Thanks Joe! A common way to answer, which ironically has thus far been uncommon on these threads ;-)
