[quote=Anonymous]Adding: by way of example, I know a man diagnosed with throat cancer who deteriorated rapidly and shifted his care to what seems to have been a good hospice program that was interested in his welfare and comfort, not in how “peacefully” they could send him to his reward. His chemo and radiation kicked in rather late, but he went into remission and is back to his regular life, including significant charitable service activity. Giving up too early would’ve foreclosed that. It is not denial for a person with a terminal illness to say “I’m going to die, but not today.”[/quote]
