| Popis: | Much has been written about Dax Cowart's tragic burn injury, treatment, and recovery. While Dax's case is certainly important to conversations regarding decision making in burn care, his is not the only story there is. In this article, the case of Andrea Rubin, also a severe burn survivor, is introduced as another voice in this conversation. Her experience during treatment and recovery is very different from Dax's and should cause us to at least pause and reconsider how we think about treatment and decision making in burn care. |
