"Maximaltherapie erwünscht" setzt ein rationales Therapieziel voraus.
In der Konstellation sollte man einmal einen Schritt zurücktreten, einsehen, dass es kein reales kuratives Therapieziel mehr gibt, und eine Palliation einleiten.
Das scheint die *maximale rationale Therapie* zu sein.

In this essay and the one posted below I share my thoughts, experience, practices and frames around community group building, why it is different from therapy groups, or groups that gather in business settings.
We need to build/rebuild ethical, non-coercive, inclusive community groups spaces:

To be clear-
I’m not naive. I believe in palliation and all attempts to incite a better world that might emerge directly or indirectly from doing what we can do.

“Kat” a disabled Canadian living with EDS - wanted access to palliative care or a family doctor.
She received approval for MAiD instead.
This is why we’re scared. Her suffering could be alleviated. Denying palliation but approving death is wrong:

Nej til aktiv dødshjælp, ja til bedre palliation. En værdig sidste tid handler om pleje og omsorg og at give patienten tryghed. Tak til @idaauken.bsky.social og Søren Gade for at melde klart ud #sundpol #dkpol
Søren Gade og Ida Auken: Nej til aktiv dødshjælp. Ja til lindring og omsorg i den sidste tid
Vores diskussion om en ’værdig død’ bør handle om palliation - smertelindring - ikke om hvorvidt staten skal tage livet af sine borgere

Har varit borta från min klinik i över ett år för att fördjupa mig i kardiologi, palliation och europeiska vårdsystem. I morgon börjar första veckan hemma igen: två dagspass och tre nattpass, goda 57 timmar! Åh, jag har saknat er också!

Patients struggle to get adequate care. There’s no focus on palliation to reduce symptoms & improve quality of life.
We’re often subjected to a merry go round of tests & failed treatments or gaslighting & disbelief.
Our energy levels aren’t taken into consideration either /2

Uanset diskussion om aktiv dødshjælp bør det jo være ja til bedre palliation med omsorg, pleje og smertelindring ved livstruende sygdom.
Trist, men nok desværre rigtigt, at tilslutningen til aktiv dødshjælp øges, hvis vi ikke har tilstrækkelig palliation.

I think of this as the intersection where palliation can increase the possibilities of healing through the alleviation of suffering.
We can sometimes die while we work on eradicating an illness
We can sometimes focus on alleviating suffering and end up creating the conditions for cure
