When your patient tells you that he is about to die, you don't tell him that he isn't.
Period.

It never fails.....the patient that tells you "I think I'm not going to make it" usually doesn't make it. It's happened to me too many times to ignore.
Why is that?
i find that if a patient says he is going to die, it is because he is going to die.
