大德安寧病房20週年 20週年專文

感謝所有的愛

臺北榮民總醫院大德安寧病房主治醫師 張曉婷

有人曾經問我，為何成為一位安寧醫師？這個問題，總會勾起我當第一年住院醫師時的傷心回憶......記得，那時在腫瘤科受訓，照顧一位乳癌末期合併肺部淋巴道擴散的病人，病人非常的喘，住院接受化學治療。星期五，這位病人在很喘的狀況之下，持續接受化學治療，星期一，當我回來上班時，這位病人卻已經過世了。我很難過，因為這位病人，可能一直喘到過世。我想，身為一位醫師，應該不只是醫治病人的疾病，更需要照護病人的不適，因此，便決定要成為一位也能夠緩解病人不適症狀的醫師，投入安寧照護的行列。這一路來，支持我繼續走下去的愛，絡繹不絕。謝謝家人和朋友們的支持與鼓勵，謝謝大德夥伴們的一路相挺，還有，給我最大力量和教我最多的病人和家屬們，感恩有您們，感謝所有的愛。

You Raise Me Up

Written:Brendan Graham/Rolf Lovland

When I am down and oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit a while with me
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up, to more than I can be
You raise me up, to more than I can be
