The dying of Joseph Mpambane - a cautionary tale
Abstract
Chris Ellis mentions Van der Walt's photo novel as a communication tool to help patients identify with others who are suffering from TB and help them in their struggle to overcome the illness. This reminded me of a story I wrote for health workers. I would like to reproduce it here to help doctors 'identify with those suffering from TB and help doctors in their struggle to manage the illness'.
