I am grateful for this discussion, as controversial as it is sometimes. Feelings can get hurt in such discussions but we all are welcome here whatever our position on this issue might be, and we do learn from each other.

As my contribution to it, I would like to point out that although this forum appears to be largely made up of those in the US, anyone worldwide is welcome. I just want to be sure we acknowledge that worldwide, the group of those who have little access to care is significant -- including a fair number even in the developed countries like the USA.

Acceptance of end-of-life circumstances and that philosophy can be based on something as simple as economics.

Again, I thank Joe and Christine for giving us this place to thoughtfully and politely air our concerns.
