        I don't think Doctors have a problem with death, society does. People are afraid, attached and selfish.

        It's a very, very brave person who can face up to the fact that we are all going to die at some point in our lives. Often, from my experience, it's the person's family who has difficulty with acceptance, rather than the person themselves.

        Most physicians haven't a shred of bedside tact. Communication is still something that needs to be addressed in medical school.

        Dr's shd b givn an individual personal choice to do so or not & when to or not. Psychologists cd b made to be and shd b involved for this. Physicians and Surgeons already have too much to do. They are humans too. Not machines. Not God's. Hw can you cause them so much stress?
