“End of life discussions are difficult but necessary. We spend a lot of time and money literally torturing some people at the end of their lives. Just because we can put someone on a ventilator or artificial support does not mean we should in all instances.”
That’s a terribly difficult time for caring families. I can’t imagine being an MD and dealing with it on a regular basis. God bless you!
It is a privilege to deal with people in a time of crisis often at their worst. My guiding principle is to honor Jesus Christ in all that I do. It is difficult and I shed tears, but it is also rewarding. Thank you for your kind sentiments!
