Absolutely.
It's I Got a Name by Jim Croce.
And Justin, I got to ask why'd you choose this song?
Well, first of all, this song came out in 1973, which is the year that Balfour Mount went to St.
Christopher's Hospice in London with the intention of learning from Cicely Saunders about hospice medicine, which became palliative care.
And the other reason is because I think many of us are confronted constantly with questions about why we don't change the name of palliative care.
And as I and others have suggested, I think it's more important to change how we think about palliative care than to change the name.
So I think it's important to assert that we got a name.
parents love Jim Croce.
And so this is a nice opportunity to hear a song that we love.
Great.
Yeah, that's a great question.
I have felt as I've come through this field over the last, I guess, 2003 is when I realized I wanted to be a palliative care doctor.
So almost, well, I guess just over 20 years ago.
And what I've come to see over time is that the clinicians that come into our field are less and less aware of where we come from.
And what I think is so special about palliative care is that there's some really
radical and important ideas that sort of under undergird our work and that provided a foundation for our work.
And I think that's really different from some other fields in medicine.
And and I think it's important that we remain connected to them because it's part of how we can be most efficacious, I think, and how we can do this work most sustainably.
And so that's why I was excited to sort of have an opportunity to visit with you and with these amazing people on the show, like this story of this field.
