摘要：Modes of explaining the relationship between the sick, deprived and injured person on the one hand, and the doctor on the other, as well as our excuses for the moral expectations emerging in these relationships, are the central point of this article. The author says that the way of interpreting human conditions such as intense suffering, chronic inability, the loss of life goals, the attainment of sound emotional, mental and physical health, fear of technological interference with life, excitement due to medical revelations etc. influences our experience of these and similar conditions, but also through our direct activity we care for someone who is not well, for his life, health and well-being. The paradigm so far prevailing in the relationship expert-patient, the heart of which is the contract-Iibertarian approach, should be subjected to the paradigm based on experience and the concept of care. As the key to understanding this new relationship, the author offers the following stories: 'the war of all against all' myth and the 'care' myth. Morally directing us, as we read the myths, the author pleads for understanding, for the establishment of a new ethical discipline - 'the ethics of care' as an integral part of the new medical ethics.
