00:12
Look, I had second thoughts, really,
1
12578
2023
Predomišljao sam se
00:14
about whether I could talk about this
2
14601
2035
da li mogu da govorim o ovome
00:16
to such a vital and alive audience as you guys.
3
16636
3040
publici koja je ovako puna života, kao vi.
00:19
Then I remembered the quote from Gloria Steinem,
4
19676
2590
A onda sam se setio citata Glorije Stajnem
00:22
which goes,
5
22266
1639
koji kaže:
00:23
"The truth will set you free,
6
23905
1931
"Istina će vas osloboditi,
00:25
but first it will piss you off." (Laughter)
7
25836
3959
ali će vas prvo dobro naljutiti." (Smeh)
00:29
So -- (Laughter)
8
29795
2268
Tako da... (Smeh)
00:32
So with that in mind, I'm going to set about
9
32063
2124
Imajući ovo na umu,
00:34
trying to do those things here,
10
34187
1591
to ću vam pokazati
00:35
and talk about dying in the 21st century.
11
35778
1862
tako što ću govoriti o umiranju u 21. veku.
00:37
Now the first thing that will piss you off, undoubtedly,
12
37640
2400
Prva stvar koja će vas sigurno naljutiti,
00:40
is that all of us are, in fact, going to die
13
40040
2619
je da ćemo svi mi umreti
00:42
in the 21st century.
14
42659
1074
u 21. veku.
00:43
There will be no exceptions to that.
15
43733
2390
Bez izuzetaka.
00:46
There are, apparently, about one in eight of you
16
46123
2657
Sudeći po anketama, otprilike jedan od osmoro vas
00:48
who think you're immortal, on surveys, but --
17
48780
2524
misli da je besmrtan, ali...
00:51
(Laughter)
18
51304
2178
(Smeh)
00:53
Unfortunately, that isn't going to happen.
19
53482
4613
Nažalost, to ne ide tako.
00:58
While I give this talk, in the next 10 minutes,
20
58095
1653
Dok vam budem ovo govorio, u sledećih 10 minuta,
00:59
a hundred million of my cells will die,
21
59748
3496
100 miliona mojih ćelija će odumreti,
01:03
and over the course of today, 2,000 of my brain cells
22
63244
2594
a tokom današnjeg dana, 2000 mojih moždanih ćelija
01:05
will die and never come back,
23
65838
2141
će nepovratno nestati,
01:07
so you could argue that the dying process
24
67979
2081
tako da bi se moglo reći da proces umiranja
01:10
starts pretty early in the piece.
25
70060
2078
počinje prilično rano.
01:12
Anyway, the second thing I want to say about dying in the
26
72138
2114
U svakom slučaju, druga stvar koju želim da kažem o umiranju
01:14
21st century, apart from it's going to happen to everybody,
27
74252
2365
u 21. veku, osim toga da nas to sve očekuje,
01:16
is it's shaping up to be a bit of a train wreck
28
76617
2616
je da taj proces za većinu nas
01:19
for most of us,
29
79233
2345
liči na raspad sistema,
01:21
unless we do something to try and reclaim this process
30
81578
2969
osim ako uradimo nešto što će ga preusmeriti
01:24
from the rather inexorable trajectory that it's currently on.
31
84547
3717
sa njegove trenutne, nezaustavljive putanje.
01:28
So there you go. That's the truth.
32
88264
1808
Tako da, to je istina.
01:30
No doubt that will piss you off, and now let's see
33
90072
1431
Ne sumnjam da će vas to naljutiti, a sada hajde da vidimo
01:31
whether we can set you free. I don't promise anything.
34
91503
2976
da li može i da vas oslobodi. Ništa ne obećavam.
01:34
Now, as you heard in the intro, I work in intensive care,
35
94479
2583
Kao što ste čuli u uvodnom govoru, ja radim na intenzivnoj nezi
01:37
and I think I've kind of lived through the heyday
36
97062
3104
i mislim da sam na neki način proživeo zlatno doba
01:40
of intensive care. It's been a ride, man.
37
100166
2007
intenzivne nege. Bila je to prilično luda vožnja.
01:42
This has been fantastic.
38
102173
1200
I bilo je fantastično.
01:43
We have machines that go ping.
39
103373
1155
Imamo svemoguće mašine.
01:44
There's many of them up there.
40
104528
2310
I to mnogo njih.
01:46
And we have some wizard technology which I think
41
106838
2744
I imamo nekakvu magičnu tehnologiju za koju smatram
01:49
has worked really well, and over the course of the time
42
109582
2512
da nas je dobro služila
01:52
I've worked in intensive care, the death rate
43
112094
2072
i od kada radim na intenzivnoj nezi, stopa smrtnosti
01:54
for males in Australia has halved,
44
114166
2370
muškaraca u Australiji se upola smanjila,
01:56
and intensive care has had something to do with that.
45
116536
1619
a intenzivna nega imala je udela u tome.
01:58
Certainly, a lot of the technologies that we use
46
118155
2008
Definitivno, mnoge od tehnologija koje koristimo
02:00
have got something to do with that.
47
120163
2220
imale su udela u tome.
02:02
So we have had tremendous success, and we kind of
48
122383
2504
Tako da smo imali ogroman uspeh i na neki način
02:04
got caught up in our own success quite a bit,
49
124887
2354
smo se zaneli tim uspehom
02:07
and we started using expressions like "lifesaving."
50
127241
3624
i počeli da koristimo izraze poput "spasavanje života".
02:10
I really apologize to everybody for doing that,
51
130865
2134
Izvinjavam se svima zvog toga,
02:12
because obviously, we don't.
52
132999
1230
jer mi to očigledno ne radimo.
02:14
What we do is prolong people's lives,
53
134229
2528
Ono što mi radimo, je produžavanje života,
02:16
and delay death,
54
136757
2101
odlaganje smrti
02:18
and redirect death, but we can't, strictly speaking,
55
138858
2845
i preusmeravanje smrti, ali ne možemo, u pravom smislu,
02:21
save lives on any sort of permanent basis.
56
141703
2855
trajno spasiti živote.
02:24
And what's really happened over the period of time
57
144558
1985
A ono što se stvarno desilo tokom mog rada
02:26
that I've been working in intensive care is that
58
146543
2639
na intenzivnoj nezi je da ljudi
02:29
the people whose lives we started saving back in the '70s,
59
149182
3570
čije živote smo počeli da spašavamo u sedamdesetim,
02:32
'80s, and '90s, are now coming to die in the 21st century
60
152752
4478
osamdesetim i devedesetim godinama, sada dolaze da umru u 21. veku
02:37
of diseases that we no longer have the answers to
61
157230
3600
zbog bolesti na koje više nemamo odgovore
02:40
in quite the way we did then.
62
160830
2510
onako kako smo ih imali pre.
02:43
So what's happening now is there's been a big shift
63
163340
1875
Ono što se trenutno dešava je velika promena
02:45
in the way that people die,
64
165215
1807
u načinu na koji ljudi umiru
02:47
and most of what they're dying of now isn't as amenable
65
167022
2271
i većina uzroka smrti više nije toliko rešiva
02:49
to what we can do as what it used to be like
66
169293
2826
kao što je to bila
02:52
when I was doing this in the '80s and '90s.
67
172119
3911
onda kada sam se ovim bavio u osamdesetima i devedesetima.
02:56
So we kind of got a bit caught up with this,
68
176030
2864
Dakle, malo nas je ovo sve zateklo
02:58
and we haven't really squared with you guys about
69
178894
3033
i nismo bili baš otvoreni sa vama u vezi sa onim
03:01
what's really happening now, and it's about time we did.
70
181927
4055
što se zapravo dešava trenutno. Ali vreme je da se to promeni.
03:05
I kind of woke up to this bit in the late '90s
71
185982
3391
Nekako su mi se otvorile oči u kasnim devedesetima
03:09
when I met this guy.
72
189373
2094
kada sam upoznao ovog čoveka.
03:11
This guy is called Jim, Jim Smith, and he looked like this.
73
191467
4357
Njegovo ime je Džim, Džim Smit, i izgledao je ovako.
03:15
I was called down to the ward to see him.
74
195824
2303
Pozvali su me na odeljenje da ga pogledam.
03:18
His is the little hand.
75
198127
2245
Njegova je ova manja ruka.
03:20
I was called down to the ward to see him
76
200372
1386
Dakle, lekar za grudne bolesti
03:21
by a respiratory physician.
77
201758
1094
pozvao me je da ga pogledam.
03:22
He said, "Look, there's a guy down here.
78
202852
2176
Rekao mi je: "Slušaj, imamo jednog čoveka ovde.
03:25
He's got pneumonia,
79
205028
1600
Ima upalu pluća
03:26
and he looks like he needs intensive care.
80
206628
2505
i izgleda mi kao da mu je potrebna intenzivna nega.
03:29
His daughter's here and she wants everything possible
81
209133
2074
Njegova ćerka je ovde i želi da uradimo sve
03:31
to be done."
82
211207
2531
što je u našoj moći".
03:33
Which is a familiar phrase to us.
83
213738
2619
A ovo nam je veoma poznata rečenica.
03:36
So I go down to the ward and see Jim,
84
216357
1831
I ja odem do odeljenja da pogledam Džima,
03:38
and his skin his translucent like this.
85
218188
1685
a njegova koža je providna, kao što možete da vidite.
03:39
You can see his bones through the skin.
86
219873
2250
Možete da mu vidite kosti kroz kožu.
03:42
He's very, very thin,
87
222123
1538
Veoma, veoma je mršav
03:43
and he is, indeed, very sick with pneumonia,
88
223661
3382
i zaista je u lošem stanju zbog upale pluća.
03:47
and he's too sick to talk to me,
89
227043
1481
I previše mu je loše da govori,
03:48
so I talk to his daughter Kathleen, and I say to her,
90
228524
5150
tako da uzmem da razgovaram sa njegovom ćerkom Ketlin i pitam je:
03:53
"Did you and Jim ever talk about
91
233674
2964
"Da li ste Džim i vi ikada razgovarali o tome
03:56
what you would want done
92
236638
1683
šta biste želeli da uradite
03:58
if he ended up in this kind of situation?"
93
238321
2014
kad bi on završio u ovakvoj sitaciji?"
04:00
And she looked at me and said, "No, of course not!"
94
240335
3729
A ona me je pogledala i rekla: "Ne, naravno da nismo!"
04:04
I thought, "Okay. Take this steady."
95
244064
5060
Pomislio sam: "Okej. Hajdemo polako."
04:09
And I got talking to her, and after a while, she said to me,
96
249124
2844
Porazgovarao sam s njom i posle nekog vremena, rekla mi je:
04:11
"You know, we always thought there'd be time."
97
251968
3003
"Znate, uvek smo mislili da će biti vremena za to."
04:14
Jim was 94. (Laughter)
98
254971
3766
Džimu je tada bilo 94 godine. (Smeh)
04:18
And I realized that something wasn't happening here.
99
258737
2534
I shvatio sam da je nešto tu nedostajalo.
04:21
There wasn't this dialogue going on
100
261271
1324
Nije bilo tog razgovora
04:22
that I imagined was happening.
101
262595
2653
za koji sam mislio da se dešava.
04:25
So a group of us started doing survey work,
102
265248
3007
Tako da je nekolicina nas počela da sprovodi istraživanja
04:28
and we looked at four and a half thousand nursing home
103
268255
2220
i pregledali smo 4,5 hiljade staračkih domova
04:30
residents in Newcastle, in the Newcastle area,
104
270475
3340
u Njukaslu i njegovoj okolini.
04:33
and discovered that only one in a hundred of them
105
273815
2947
Otkrili smo da samo jedan od sto njih
04:36
had a plan about what to do when their hearts stopped beating.
106
276762
3065
ima plan za trenutak kada srca tih ljudi prestanu da kucaju.
04:39
One in a hundred.
107
279827
1139
Jedan od sto.
04:40
And only one in 500 of them had plan about what to do
108
280966
3341
A samo jedan od petsto njih ima plan
04:44
if they became seriously ill.
109
284307
3097
ako se neko od njih ozbiljno razboli.
04:47
And I realized, of course, this dialogue
110
287404
2760
I shvatio sam, naravno, ovaj se razgovor
04:50
is definitely not occurring in the public at large.
111
290164
4636
uglavnom ne odvija u našem društvu.
04:54
Now, I work in acute care.
112
294800
1478
E sada, ja radim na akutnoj nezi.
04:56
This is John Hunter Hospital.
113
296278
2105
Radi se o bolnici Džon Hanter.
04:58
And I thought, surely, we do better than that.
114
298383
4001
I pomislio sam, sigurno možemo bolje od toga.
05:02
So a colleague of mine from nursing called Lisa Shaw and I
115
302384
2996
Zatim sam sa koleginicom Lisom Šo, koja je negovateljica,
05:05
went through hundreds and hundreds of sets of notes
116
305380
2516
prošao kroz stotine i stotine papira
05:07
in the medical records department
117
307896
1273
u odeljenju medicinskih dosijea
05:09
looking at whether there was any sign at all
118
309169
2621
ne bismo li pronašli ikakvog traga
05:11
that anybody had had any conversation about
119
311790
2428
da je neko imao ikakav razgovor o tome
05:14
what might happen to them if the treatment they were
120
314218
1853
šta bi se moglo desiti sa njima, ako bi terapija
05:16
receiving was unsuccessful to the point that they would die.
121
316071
3344
koju primaju bila neuspešna i ako bi oni umrli.
05:19
And we didn't find a single record of any preference
122
319415
2941
I nismo našli nijedan dokaz o preferiranim
05:22
about goals, treatments or outcomes from any
123
322356
3844
ciljevima, terapiji ili ishodima ni u jednom
05:26
of the sets of notes initiated by a doctor or by a patient.
124
326200
4570
zapisu lekara ili pacijenta.
05:30
So we started to realize
125
330770
2717
Počeli smo da shvatamo
05:33
that we had a problem,
126
333487
2201
da imamo problem,
05:35
and the problem is more serious because of this.
127
335688
5023
a on je još ozbiljniji zbog ovoga. (Važno je kako ćete umreti.)
05:40
What we know is that obviously we are all going to die,
128
340711
3302
Ono što znamo je da ćemo zasigurno svi umreti,
05:44
but how we die is actually really important,
129
344013
2665
ali kako ćemo umreti je zapravo veoma važno
05:46
obviously not just to us, but also to how that
130
346678
3555
i to ne samo zbog nas, nego i zbog toga kako će se to
05:50
features in the lives of all the people who live on afterwards.
131
350233
3134
odraziti na živote ljudi koji nastavljaju da žive posle toga.
05:53
How we die lives on in the minds of everybody
132
353367
2321
Način na koji umremo ostaje u glavama svih
05:55
who survives us, and
133
355688
3117
koji nas nadžive
05:58
the stress created in families by dying is enormous,
134
358805
3732
i stres koji zbog smrti nastaje u porodici je ogroman.
06:02
and in fact you get seven times as much stress by dying
135
362537
2686
Zapravo, taj stres je sedam puta veći ako se umre
06:05
in intensive care as by dying just about anywhere else,
136
365223
2737
na intenzivnoj nezi nego ako se umre bilo gde drugde.
06:07
so dying in intensive care is not your top option
137
367960
3078
Tako da, smrt na intenzivnoj nezi ne bi bio vaš prvi izbor,
06:11
if you've got a choice.
138
371038
2458
ako biste mogli da birate.
06:13
And, if that wasn't bad enough, of course,
139
373496
2169
A kao da ovo nije dovoljno loše,
06:15
all of this is rapidly progressing towards the fact that
140
375665
2648
sve to brzo napreduje prema činjenici da će
06:18
many of you, in fact, about one in 10 of you at this point,
141
378313
2352
mnogi od vas, oko jedan od deset vas,
06:20
will die in intensive care.
142
380665
1450
umreti na intenzivnoj nezi.
06:22
In the U.S., it's one in five.
143
382115
1334
U SAD, to je jedan od pet.
06:23
In Miami, it's three out of five people die in intensive care.
144
383449
3750
U Majamiju, tri od pet ljudi umre na intenzivnoj nezi.
06:27
So this is the sort of momentum
145
387199
2065
Dakle, trenutno
06:29
that we've got at the moment.
146
389264
2288
imamo porast u ovim brojevima.
06:31
The reason why this is all happening is due to this,
147
391552
2545
Razlog svega toga je ovo što vidite
06:34
and I do have to take you through what this is about.
148
394097
1302
i zaista moram da vam objasnim značenje ovih grafikona.
06:35
These are the four ways to go.
149
395399
1965
Ovo su četiri načina na koje se umire.
06:37
So one of these will happen to all of us.
150
397364
2865
Dakle, jedan od ovih će se desiti svima nama.
06:40
The ones you may know most about are the ones
151
400229
2530
Oni koje možda najbolje poznajete su oni
06:42
that are becoming increasingly of historical interest:
152
402759
2846
koji sve više postaju od istorijskog značaja:
06:45
sudden death.
153
405605
1417
iznenadna smrt.
06:47
It's quite likely in an audience this size
154
407022
1445
Veoma je verovatno da se iz publike u ovom broju
06:48
this won't happen to anybody here.
155
408467
2551
ovakva smrt neće desiti nikome ovde.
06:51
Sudden death has become very rare.
156
411018
1730
Iznenadna smrt postala je veoma retka.
06:52
The death of Little Nell and Cordelia and all that sort of stuff
157
412748
2455
Smrti Male Nel i Kordelije [iz Kralja Lira] i takve stvari
06:55
just doesn't happen anymore.
158
415203
1673
jednostavno se više ne dešavaju.
06:56
The dying process of those with terminal illness
159
416876
2417
Proces umiranja poput onog kod neizlečivih bolesti
06:59
that we've just seen
160
419293
1032
koji smo upravo videli
07:00
occurs to younger people.
161
420325
1615
dešava se mlađim ljudima.
07:01
By the time you've reached 80, this is unlikely to happen to you.
162
421940
2850
Nakon što dosegnete osamdesetu, malo je verovatno da će vam se to desiti.
07:04
Only one in 10 people who are over 80 will die of cancer.
163
424790
3415
Tek 1 od 10 ljudi koji imaju preko 80 godina, umire od raka.
07:08
The big growth industry are these.
164
428205
4835
U porastu su ove.
07:13
What you die of is increasing organ failure,
165
433040
3251
Ono od čega umirete je otkazivanje organa,
07:16
with your respiratory, cardiac, renal,
166
436291
2235
gde se vaša pluća, srce, bubrezi,
07:18
whatever organs packing up. Each of these
167
438526
1780
ili koji god organi, predaju. Sve od ovoga
07:20
would be an admission to an acute care hospital,
168
440306
2603
znači da biste bili primljeni na akutnu negu u bolnici
07:22
at the end of which, or at some point during which,
169
442909
1969
gde bi na kraju ili u toku nje
07:24
somebody says, enough is enough, and we stop.
170
444878
2176
neko rekao: "što je dosta, dosta je" i mi stajemo.
07:27
And this one's the biggest growth industry of all,
171
447054
2568
A ova ovde je u najvećem porastu od svih
07:29
and at least six out of 10 of the people in this room
172
449622
2575
i barem 6 od 10 ljudi u ovoj prostoriji
07:32
will die in this form, which is
173
452197
2562
umreće ovako, a to je
07:34
the dwindling of capacity
174
454759
3894
smanjenje kapaciteta
07:38
with increasing frailty,
175
458653
2319
sa porastom slabosti.
07:40
and frailty's an inevitable part of aging,
176
460972
2250
Slabost je neizbežan deo starenja,
07:43
and increasing frailty is in fact the main thing
177
463222
2553
a porast slabosti je zapravo glavni razlog
07:45
that people die of now,
178
465775
1049
smrti danas.
07:46
and the last few years, or the last year of your life
179
466824
2128
Poslednjih nekoliko godina ili poslednju godinu svog života,
07:48
is spent with a great deal of disability, unfortunately.
180
468952
4015
nažalost, ćete provesti, u velikoj meri, nemoćni.
07:52
Enjoying it so far? (Laughs)
181
472967
3384
Uživamo li zasad? (Smeje se)
07:56
(Laughter)
182
476351
3153
(Smeh)
07:59
Sorry, I just feel such a, I feel such a Cassandra here.
183
479504
3428
Izvinite, osećam se kao neka zloslutna proročica.
08:02
(Laughter)
184
482932
5158
(Smeh)
08:08
What can I say that's positive? What's positive is
185
488090
1059
Ono što je pozitivno je
08:09
that this is happening at very great age, now.
186
489149
2415
da se to sada dešava u veoma kasnim godinama.
08:11
We are all, most of us, living to reach this point.
187
491564
2745
Većina nas živi da bi dostigla ovu tačku.
08:14
You know, historically, we didn't do that.
188
494309
1888
Znate, u prošlosti, to nismo mogli.
08:16
This is what happens to you
189
496197
1469
To je ono što vam se desi
08:17
when you live to be a great age,
190
497666
2523
kada doživite te kasne godine,
08:20
and unfortunately, increasing longevity does mean
191
500189
1889
a, nažalost, povećanje dugovečnosti znači
08:22
more old age, not more youth.
192
502078
1927
dužu starost, ne dužu mladost.
08:24
I'm sorry to say that. (Laughter)
193
504005
6093
Žao mi je što to moram da vam kažem. (Smeh)
08:30
What we did, anyway, look, what we did,
194
510098
1797
Ono što smo uradili je da
08:31
we didn't just take this lying down
195
511895
1527
nismo samo sedeli skrštenih ruku
08:33
at John Hunter Hospital and elsewhere.
196
513422
1502
u bolnici Džnon Hanter ili negde drugde.
08:34
We've started a whole series of projects
197
514924
1622
Započeli smo čitav niz projekata
08:36
to try and look about whether we could, in fact, involve
198
516546
2996
kako bismo saznali da li možemo mnogo više
08:39
people much more in the way that things happen to them.
199
519542
3494
da uključimo ljude u ono što će im se desiti.
08:43
But we realized, of course, that we are dealing
200
523036
1232
Ali smo, naravno, shvatili da imamo posla
08:44
with cultural issues,
201
524268
2344
sa kulturološkim problemima.
08:46
and this is, I love this Klimt painting,
202
526612
1859
A ovo je, obožavam ovu Klimtovu sliku,
08:48
because the more you look at it, the more you kind of get
203
528471
2205
jer što je duže gledate, to bolje shvatate
08:50
the whole issue that's going on here,
204
530676
2019
ceo taj problem koji se odvija
08:52
which is clearly the separation of death from the living,
205
532695
3518
a to je naravno odvajanje smrti od života,
08:56
and the fear — Like, if you actually look,
206
536213
1880
i strah. Na primer, ako se zaista zadubite
08:58
there's one woman there
207
538093
1175
videćete ovu ženu ovde
08:59
who has her eyes open.
208
539268
1919
kojoj su otvorene oči.
09:01
She's the one he's looking at,
209
541187
1685
Ona je ta koju on gleda.
09:02
and [she's] the one he's coming for. Can you see that?
210
542872
3228
Po nju je došao. Vidite li to?
09:06
She looks terrified.
211
546100
1526
Ona izgleda prestravljeno.
09:07
It's an amazing picture.
212
547626
1693
Neverovatna slika.
09:09
Anyway, we had a major cultural issue.
213
549319
2221
U svakom slučaju, imali smo ogroman kulturološki problem.
09:11
Clearly, people didn't want us to talk about death,
214
551540
1984
Jasno je da ljudi nisu želeli da pričamo o smrti
09:13
or, we thought that.
215
553524
1495
ili smo mi bar tako mislili.
09:15
So with loads of funding from the Federal Government
216
555019
1947
I tako smo sa ogromnom finansijskom podrškom savezne vlade
09:16
and the local Health Service, we introduced a thing
217
556966
1420
i lokalne zdravstvene službe, u bolnici Džon Hanter
09:18
at John Hunter called Respecting Patient Choices.
218
558386
2898
predstavili nešto što se zove Poštovanje izbora pacijenta.
09:21
We trained hundreds of people to go to the wards
219
561284
2849
Obučili smo stotine ljudi da idu po odeljenjima
09:24
and talk to people about the fact that they would die,
220
564133
3143
i pričaju sa ljudima o činjenici da će umreti
09:27
and what would they prefer under those circumstances.
221
567276
2286
i šta bi voleli da se uradi u tom slučaju.
09:29
They loved it. The families and the patients, they loved it.
222
569562
3519
I svidelo im se. I porodicama i pacijetima se izuzetno svidelo.
09:33
Ninety-eight percent of people really thought
223
573081
2460
98 procenata ljudi je stvarno smatralo
09:35
this just should have been normal practice,
224
575541
1454
da to treba da bude uobičajena praksa
09:36
and that this is how things should work.
225
576995
2383
i da bi tako stvari trebalo da funkcionišu.
09:39
And when they expressed wishes,
226
579378
1938
I kada su izneli svoje želje
09:41
all of those wishes came true, as it were.
227
581316
1973
sve te želje su se ostvarile.
09:43
We were able to make that happen for them.
228
583289
1980
Mogli smo to da im omogućimo.
09:45
But then, when the funding ran out,
229
585269
2250
Ali onda, kada se finansijska pomoć potrošila
09:47
we went back to look six months later,
230
587519
2085
vratili smo se da vidimo 6 meseci kasnije
09:49
and everybody had stopped again,
231
589604
2267
i svi su prestali sa tim.
09:51
and nobody was having these conversations anymore.
232
591871
3193
Niko više nije vodio ove razgovore.
09:55
So that was really kind of heartbreaking for us,
233
595064
2053
To nas je prilično pogodilo,
09:57
because we thought this was going to really take off.
234
597117
2717
jer smo mislili da će stvarno postati popularno.
09:59
The cultural issue had reasserted itself.
235
599834
3971
Kulturološki problem se ponovo vratio.
10:03
So here's the pitch:
236
603805
1155
Dakle, šta je zaključak:
10:04
I think it's important that we don't just get on this freeway
237
604960
4086
važno je da se ne zaputimo ovim autoputem
10:09
to ICU without thinking hard about whether or not
238
609046
2499
koji vodi ka intenzivnoj nezi, a da pre toga dobro ne razmislimo
10:11
that's where we all want to end up,
239
611545
1793
da li uopšte želimo tamo da završimo.
10:13
particularly as we become older and increasingly frail
240
613338
2136
Posebno pošto postanemo sve stariji i slabiji
10:15
and ICU has less and less and less to offer us.
241
615474
3654
i intenzivna nega ima sve manje da nam ponudi.
10:19
There has to be a little side road
242
619128
2330
Mora da postoji malo skretanje
10:21
off there for people who don't want to go on that track.
243
621458
4475
za ljude koji ne žele da idu tim putem.
10:25
And I have one small idea,
244
625933
2636
A ja imam jednu malu
10:28
and one big idea about what could happen.
245
628569
4449
i jednu veliku ideju o tome šta bi se moglo desiti.
10:33
And this is the small idea.
246
633018
1061
A ovo je mala ideja.
10:34
The small idea is, let's all of us
247
634079
2781
Ona predlaže da se svi
10:36
engage more with this in the way that Jason has illustrated.
248
636860
3936
više uključimo u ovo na način na koji je Džejson prikazao.
10:40
Why can't we have these kinds of conversations
249
640796
2053
Zašto ne možemo na ovaj način da razgovaramo
10:42
with our own elders
250
642849
1321
sa starijima iz sopstvene okoline
10:44
and people who might be approaching this?
251
644170
2790
i sa ljudima koji se tome bliže?
10:46
There are a couple of things you can do.
252
646960
1834
Postoji nekoliko stvari koje možete da uradite.
10:48
One of them is, you can,
253
648794
2131
Jedna od njih je da samo pitate
10:50
just ask this simple question. This question never fails.
254
650925
2914
ovo prosto pitanje. Ono nikad ne zakaže.
10:53
"In the event that you became too sick to speak for yourself,
255
653839
3755
"U slučaju da postanete previše bolesni da biste mogli da
10:57
who would you like to speak for you?"
256
657594
2933
govorite za sebe, koga biste voleli da govori umesto vas?"
11:00
That's a really important question to ask people,
257
660527
1914
To je veoma važno pitanje
11:02
because giving people the control over who that is
258
662441
2023
jer dati ljudima odluku o toj osobi
11:04
produces an amazing outcome.
259
664464
3308
dovodi do neverovatnih rezultata.
11:07
The second thing you can say is,
260
667772
1146
Druga stvar koju možete da pitate je:
11:08
"Have you spoken to that person
261
668918
1498
"Da li ste razgovarali sa tom osobom
11:10
about the things that are important to you
262
670416
1920
o onome što je vama važno, kako bismo
11:12
so that we've got a better idea of what it is we can do?"
263
672336
4154
imali bolju ideju o tome šta mi možemo da uradimo?"
11:16
So that's the little idea.
264
676490
2522
Dakle, to je ta mala ideja.
11:19
The big idea, I think, is more political.
265
679012
1494
Mislim da je velika ideja više stvar politike.
11:20
I think we have to get onto this.
266
680506
1951
Mislim da moramo da se posvetimo ovome.
11:22
I suggested we should have Occupy Death.
267
682457
3062
Predložio sam nekakav protest za smrt.
11:25
(Laughter)
268
685519
2785
(Smeh)
11:28
My wife said, "Yeah, right, sit-ins in the mortuary.
269
688304
2570
Moja žena je rekla: "Da, baš, skupljaćemo se u mrtvačnici.
11:30
Yeah, yeah. Sure." (Laughter)
270
690874
2579
Da, da. SIgurno." (Smeh)
11:33
So that one didn't really run,
271
693453
1865
Tako da mi to baš nije uspelo,
11:35
but I was very struck by this.
272
695318
1670
ali bio sam dosta pogođen time.
11:36
Now, I'm an aging hippie.
273
696988
1713
Dobro, ja sam ostareli hipik.
11:38
I don't know, I don't think I look like that anymore, but
274
698701
2497
Ne znam, mislim da ne izgledam tako više,
11:41
I had, two of my kids were born at home in the '80s
275
701198
2500
ali dvoje moje dece rođeno je kod kuće u osamdesetima
11:43
when home birth was a big thing, and we baby boomers
276
703698
3468
kad je kućni porođaj bio popularan, a mi, deo Bebi-bum generacije
11:47
are used to taking charge of the situation,
277
707166
2696
navikli smo da preuzimamo kontrolu nad situacijom,
11:49
so if you just replace all these words of birth,
278
709862
3398
tako da, ako samo zamenite svuda gde piše "porođaj",
11:53
I like "Peace, Love, Natural Death" as an option.
279
713260
3081
meni se sviđa opcija "Mir, ljubav, prirodna smrt".
11:56
I do think we have to get political
280
716341
1516
Mislim da ne moramo da govorimo u političkom smislu
11:57
and start to reclaim this process from
281
717857
2598
i da počnemo da premeštamo ovaj proces
12:00
the medicalized model in which it's going.
282
720455
1967
iz onog medicinskog modela u kome se nalazi.
12:02
Now, listen, that sounds like a pitch for euthanasia.
283
722422
2040
Ali slušajte, to zvuči kao da zagovaram eutanaziju.
12:04
I want to make it absolutely crystal clear to you all,
284
724462
2192
Želim da svima bude apsolutno kristalno jasno
12:06
I hate euthanasia. I think it's a sideshow.
285
726654
2664
da ja mrzim eutanaziju. Mislim da je to sporedna stvar.
12:09
I don't think euthanasia matters.
286
729318
2187
Mislim da eutanazija nije bitna.
12:11
I actually think that,
287

Zaista mislim
12:13
in places like Oregon,
288
733656
2549
da na mestima poput Oregona
12:16
where you can have physician-assisted suicide,
289
736205
3472
gde je moguće izvršiti samoubistvo uz pomoć lekara,
12:19
you take a poisonous dose of stuff,
290
739677
2217
gde uzmete otrovnu dozu nečega,
12:21
only half a percent of people ever do that.
291
741894
1876
samo pola procenta ljudi se odluči na to.
12:23
I'm more interested in what happens to the 99.5 percent
292
743770
2706
Mene više zanima šta se dešava sa 99,5 procenata
12:26
of people who don't want to do that.
293
746476
1756
ljudi koji to ne žele.
12:28
I think most people don't want to be dead,
294
748232
2334
Mislim da većina ljudi ne želi da umre,
12:30
but I do think most people want to have some control
295
750566
2097
ali zato mislim da većina ljudi želi da ima nekakvu kontrolu
12:32
over how their dying process proceeds.
296
752663
2742
nad svojim procesom umiranja.
12:35
So I'm an opponent of euthanasia,
297
755405
1140
Tako da sam ja protivnik eutanazije,
12:36
but I do think we have to give people back some control.
298
756545
2653
ali mislim da moramo da damo ljudima neku kontrolu.
12:39
It deprives euthanasia of its oxygen supply.
299
759198
3473
Time bismo eutanaziji oduzeli zalihu kiseonika.
12:42
I think we should be looking at stopping
300
762671
1352
Mislim da treba da težimo zaustavljanju
12:44
the want for euthanasia,
301
764023
1039
želje za eutanazijom,
12:45
not for making it illegal or legal or worrying about it at all.
302
765062
4695
a ne tome da ona bude ilegalna ili legalna ili da brinemo uopšte o tome.
12:49
This is a quote from Dame Cicely Saunders,
303
769757

Ovo je citat gospođe Siseli Sonders,
12:53
whom I met when I was a medical student.
304
773333
1369
koju sam upoznao kao student medicine.
12:54
She founded the hospice movement.
305
774702
2879
Ona je osnovala pokret domova za nemoćne.
12:57
And she said, "You matter because you are,
306
777581
2191
I ona je rekla: "Značajan si jer postojiš,
12:59
and you matter to the last moment of your life."
307
779772
2522
i značajan si do poslednjeg trenutka svog života".
13:02
And I firmly believe that
308
782294
2257
I ja čvrsto verujem da je to
13:04
that's the message that we have to carry forward.
309
784551
3086
poruka koju moramo dalje da prenosimo.
13:07
Thank you. (Applause)
