Would you like to die the way your patients do, doctor? We suspect that many of you will answer no. Too many people are dying undignified graceless deaths in hospital wards or intensive care units, with doctors battling against death way past the point that is humane. Because too many doctors have forgotten that death is a friend, people are kept alive when all that makes life valuable has gone. Denying the inevitable comes with a heavy price. We believe that doctors and their patients need to adopt a much more positive attitude to death to reduce suffering and costs.
