Family Medicine Notes

When a patient dies ...

Dave Winer's uncle died suddenly the other day. One of my patients - (and the son of a good friend) died suddenly yesterday - and I've not been very functional since.

Sam and I are off to Atlanta today for the STFM meeting. We're going to the Braves goame tomorrow afternoon.

Jacob, my condolences as well. Have found "In the Midst of Winter" helpful. (Writings on mortality by Chekov, Edna St. Vincent Millay and many others.) ...Taking word of blogs to STFM meeting? http://griefnet.org/library/reviews/m/midswintrR.html
