“The child wants to go to the playroom. The parent wants to know if their child will live. And the oncologist has to hold both worlds at once.
In the latest Oncology Couch, Aleksandra Filipovic speaks with pediatric hematologist-oncologist Dr Jorge Ricardo Galvez Silva about childhood cancer, hope, uncertainty – and the limits of what medicine can explain.
Why can similar disease and similar treatment sometimes lead to very different outcomes?
Jorge calls the unknown variable ‘D’ – not an alternative to science, but a reminder that medicine may not yet be able to measure everything that matters.
What do you think medicine still doesn’t know how to measure?
And join a conversation that may leave you with more questions than answers. Perhaps that is exactly where discovery begins.”
