Modern medicine teaches how to cure or treat but now how to die. I think that many doctors out there do not know how to cope with final days...However, there is a new field of Palliative Medicine and one of our members has gone with it for his wife with advanced PS and himself, and he is a retired MD. Hospice too is highly specialized in final days, and it is very highly recommended.
