Why Do Doctors Write?
For physicians, curiosity and care spill easily onto the page.
Should doctors be writing about patients at all? Should protected information shared in confidence, in the setting of illness, with a high-stakes power differential, be fodder for writing—no matter how compelling?

Interesting reporting on involuntary treatment but buried the lede big time: The man the involuntary treatment law is named after fled Washington because it was too traumatizing to be forced into treatment, and later died in treatment. Heartbreaking.

Blindness is on a spectrum.
When someone says they are blind, ask “ How much vision do you have?”
This opens up the conversation and prevents it from being built on assumptions.
