DiscussionAs part of the eRAPID RCT, we aimed to capture information from patients and clinicians, via interviews and written feedback, to understand experiences of using the system to help explain results and improve future refinement of this approach in cancer care. Both patients and clinicians reported that eRAPID was easy to use. The main advantages from a patient perspective included its role as a trusted source of information and advice, providing an enhanced connection with the hospital.

This is a bit of a rant, and will probably ruffle some feathers, but I only know to be honest, and in the pursuit of that, I must say: I’ve lost count at this point. Somewhere around 100? Maybe 200?

Find and share the perfect poems. Imagine, when a human dies,the soul misses the body, actually grievesthe loss of its hands and allthey could hold. Misses the throat closing shyreading out loud on the first day of school. Imagine the soul misses the stubbed toe,the loose tooth, the funny bone. The soul still asks, Whydoes the funny bone do that? It’s just weird. Imagine the soul misses the thirsty garden cheekswatered by grief. Misses how the body could sleepthrough a dream.

A song I’m loving: 1 — I was working on a project at a coffee shop earlier this week, sitting at a table next to two men in their 70’s.
