Summary
I want to do the right thing. She was a wonderful mother, and deserves only that. This common refrain comes from children of aged, ill parents. Families struggle with decisions, confronting the inevitable while providing parents with love and care. Modern medicine often offers endless treatments - but illnesses eventually progress and the focus must ultimately shift to end-of-life care. Moments that Matter: Cases in Ethical Eldercare reflects Dr. Gordons extensive experience with families struggling with poignant and difficult decisions.
