Share your experience with medical students
After the release of my book, one kind doctor told me that he would include a sharing session in the 2nd year medical student curriculum (microbiology) for family members and/or patients afflicted by hospital infections to tell their stories. Majority of the medical students do not have relatives who are patients, and hopefully they will appreciate the problems faced by the "other side" from such sharing sessions.
My first reaction was that it is a good initiative but it will be an uphill task; getting patients and their family members to come forward and share their experience "openly" with the medical students.
If you are supportive of his initiative, you may write to me at admin@cancerstory.com so that I can introduce you to this kind doctor.
