Great Idea explain and remind of the meaning behind these much used and thrown around terms. And yes some doctors are better at explaining than others. Timing and serving up information to patients in smaller portions can also help patients truly hear them- since patients and caretakers are operating on fumes when sleep deprived and the ability to take it all in is hard when emotions and fears are high. Keep writing!
Thanks so much ,Susan! You're so right- it's so hard to process when you're operating with such high stress. I just recall being in the ICU and having the info wash over me like a server listing salad dressings and I didnt hear a thing.
