Having companioned many people at the end of life - family members, friends, and clients - I know that endings matter.
I also realize that without thoughtful consideration and planning, a good death may not be experienced. There are countless things that could - and often do - go wrong. Sadly, some decisions made months if not years prior to death negate the possibility of a preferred ending.

What are the potential benefits and burdens of every option? What are the realistic odds that an intervention or therapy will be effective - leading to a higher quality of life?
Possessing the needed information, perhaps we can mitigate the risk of a tragic ending.
