Abstract: | After working in intensive care for thirteen years, I believed I understood some of the experiences of our patients and their families. However, my own experience on the receiving end of intensive care has demonstrated how little I knew and has changed not only my own views and perceptions, but has stimulated changes to practice in one icu. |
