    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 The concept of a good death is something that Catholics are familiar with. It is there in the catechism, the Catholic instruction manual. Occupy yourself with thoughts of death until you fall asleep. One can even pray to St Joseph in the hope that he will intercede when the time comes.

    #2 Community hospitals do not have the facilities to support life-support machines or cardiac support for patients who have survived cardiac arrest. If the resuscitation is successful, it was not a true cardiopulmonary arrest.

      Oct 31, 2021

      It isn’t so much the nomenclature that bothers me as a person who can be termed an “older adult” (“Age-old stereotypes”, October 30). What is annoying is that, despite my height, I have become invisible. When I went to buy a new computer, my daughter

      Insights from Chapter 2

      #1

      The process of dying is now managed with much skill, but still, we get it wrong. It is all too common for doctors not to recognize that a patient is dying and pursue suffering- prolonging investigations and treatments.

      #2
