Awesome article (your references are off the book). I've heard one of the hardest things about working in palliative care is telling a patient that you don't know how long they have to live. Doctors can give ballpark figures but with so many variables and a non-linear distribution of deaths giving a good estimate is just not feasable!

Each case is particular and giving someone the best information of their particular risk is always necessary, but the most important thing is that a lot of information is always lost in translation. The best one can hope for is that everyone learns as much as possible the language of nature.
