Hope Is Fine, but Reality Is Best in End-of-Life Care

Arthur L. Caplan, PhD


A colleague of mine at the University of Pennsylvania, Ezekiel "Zeke" Emanuel, wrotea very interesting essayinThe Atlanticabout the death of his 92-year-old father in a large, high-quality, academic-affiliated hospital. Zeke said it wasn't the death that his dad would have wanted, nor was it the death he wanted his dad to have.
