We need to figure out how to create this community of palliative care social work scholars. It creates that community where you’re like, “Oh, I’m not alone. And I’ve got a whole community of people to support me.” And then my mom was diagnosed with lung cancer and she was treated there.

I think the first time I noticed it was, like as a medical student when you would rotate on one service with one attending and they would make decisions about how to treat a case one way. So we got community members who said that if their loved one were ever to get sick, they would be the one who would be the decision maker.
