Continue the lesson..

26 JUNE 2009

Today, we continue our lesson on breaking bad news. What is important in breaking bad news is how we say it. There are two type of tone use by human, that is accusing tone and supporting tone. As a doctor, we should use supporting tone. By this way, we can help the patients gain his/her spirit against his/her disease. The patients really need moral support in this time and we cannot simply accuse them doing what they are not doing. For example for HIV patient, we cannot accuse them having a free sex. If we accuse them like that, it will make them down and finally give up. We stop the lesson at lesson 5 as Nazrin is not coming to the class today. She was back to his hometown last night. Maybe he is homesick. "It would not be fair for Nazrin if we continue the lesson", said Miss Dila. She was very caring. But, next week, I am going to have a role play.
What??????????????
I can't believe it.........
