Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer, 1: Delayed Diagnosis

  1. I just viewed this youtube video and it really impressed upon me the importance of active listening with this population....listening for the persistence of vague symptoms and for what may be the unexpected diagnosis in this population. Take a look...this could be your patient, a friend, a family member.

  2. "Listen for more than words", that's advice that we could pretty much apply to every life situation..

    Thanks for sharing Mum. I guess it just goes to show that you're better safe than sorry, and that you should always consider the unlikely situation.
