Family Security Matters » Publications » Keeping End-of-Life Decisions, Our Decision: "Emotions are high in the debate over the future of our health care, and for good reason. What we are discussing are deeply personal, often deeply emotional issues.
Americans are troubled by what we're hearing from Washington because we don't want government to dictate these deeply personal, deeply emotional decisions. Especially those decisions that come near the end of life.
Like so many Americans, I know this from personal experience.
My father-in-law recently passed a few years ago. It was a tragic, grief-filled event. But in the end, my father-in-law, his doctors and his family controlled the care he received. Not a bureaucrat. Not an impersonal panel of government 'experts.'
That's why this debate is so emotional.
The Model for End of Life Care"
