Dr. Wright:
Mysteries are wonderful to read on a train, but they are not fun to live with, so the less mysterious cancer is, the more informed the whole family is about the process. So they’re not going, “We can’t talk about that.” It’s just, it makes the patient a pariah, so we have to take the fear out of it for everyone and that’s how talking about it compassionately, knowing that it’s a challenge, but it’s a process that we’re going through and that the family is a part of that process.
