i might add/clarify, that in a society whose finances were not so taxed by the costs of war and military supremacy, the costs of ‘heroic measures’ in end of life care, may well be worth addressing. but it only seems right to do so individually, in a personal and humane way that respects the dying person’s desire to face death on their own terms.

if we generally feared death less as a society, talked it over more, reasoned it out, thought about it more clearly–fewer people would want, (or consent to,) much of these last second heroic efforts.
