When the case reached the edge of what medicine actually knows today, I didn't pretend otherwise. I told my patient honestly where the certainty ran out, and then I stayed, present with them in that gap instead of filling it with false comfort. Offering my presence when I couldn't offer answers turned out to be its own kind of care.
More people experience this than they realize.
You practice honestly at the limits of medicine, offering presence where you can't offer certainty.
