A Beautiful Phrase

Just read a post from a nurse sharing some stories of her workplace.
She used a beautiful phrase:"Comfort Measures Only".
I love that.
I love the idea that those who are nearing death, who do not wish to be kept alive in pain may ask that extraordinary measures not be taken.
We all will pass, but not all have that option available.
Comfort measures. That is perfect.

  1. If you wonder about the picture, those are plums from our old orchard. One of my favorite picture.

I don't like spam, so I'm trying this new setup-even though most commenters are smart enough to not click on spam.
I don't want to use any verification/moderation to allow comments, as the least hassles, the better. We'll see how this works.
