Question Everything???


Listen Later

As my dad battles his cancer, his doctors are prescribing him with more and more pain meds. But as they give him the substances to shut off his pain signals, they aren’t even questioning whether or not this is adding to the massive bowel obstruction seen on his CT scan. Nor are they even considering any option that is not a drug to alleviate his pain  

Yet I show up and give him simple things to do to ramp up his own internal pain killers. These are things "pain doctors" should know, but instead they give me a quizzical look like I'm an alien. All because they aren't questioning whether or not the method they're used to is the only or even best way  

So today we’ll talk about the possibility that comes from being willing to question.

Have a listen.

Highlights:

  • There’s lots of places where people just swallow the information instead of questioning. (8:30)
  • None of them have ever experienced it. And that led to the question, “Why am I listening to them if their answers will only ever keep me on the roller coaster?" (12:25)
  • What we’re dealing with is your biology. What we’re dealing with is the comfort of your system, and how your mind makes sense of that. (13:50)
  • Doctors are trained to never suggest that they don’t know what’s going on. (30:45)
  • It was a really hard thing for this man to even question his own practice. (34:40)
