Wish 1: To get relief from dyspnea (achieved w/ narcotics)
Wish 2: To go outside (we brought many tanks bc his high O2 needs)
Wish 3: To eat good gluten-free pizza (ordered & donated by me).

Before he died, he said it was the best 48hrs he's had in a long time. I cried. @3wishesprogram.bsky.social

My research coordinator told me she cried when she heard my grant on @3wishesprogram.bsky.social in safety net hospitals got renewed. She told me even tho I have other projects, this was main reason she wanted to work for me--to bring #3WP to the underserved.

I love the people I work with.

Nice to see this paper published - really important topic to think about how we manage people who want to withdraw from a trial and the principles that are important in operationalising this.

Just got an email from a colleague that her dying patient wants to see the ocean one last time. Made me sad. Fingers crossed that they can make it happen with my advice from 6000 miles away…
