Author’s Note

This book is an exploration of end-of-life care based on my experiences as a daughter and as a physician. It recounts the gradual evolution of a viewpoint regarding an important and complex issue. All patient information has been altered to protect individual identities and respect privacy.

The story does not follow a traditional chronological course; rather it follows the path I took in figuring it out. Which means I wrote it slightly backwards, looping about, side to side, and with the considerable use of retrospect. Things rarely work out as we plan; but without a plan, where would we be?
