Atul Gawande, who's written extensively on end of life issues, had an excellent one hour Frontline special that covered the same topic. I highly recommend watching it if you're interested at all in how terminal illness and dying are handled in the United States today: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/being-mortal/ http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/being-mortal/
