I was referring to the hostility some at FR express toward hospices. They call them death camps. They claim people are being murdered there. They don't think anyone should decide even for himself whether to continue medical treatment for a terminal condition. That Mr. Buchwald has made such choices for himself would offend them. They might prefer that the government intervene to force treatment upon him. Does any of this sound familiar to you, as one of the voices of reason on this topic?

Maybe the hostile ones have some innate fears they refuse to face? Were all going to die, and if a person can do with the dignity Art is showing, they should pay attention. Hospice can be a God-send when dealing with end of life situations.


Prayers for Columnist Art Buchwald and his family.
