How should we make end of life decisions?

On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation about end of life care for the terminally ill. Dr Jack Kevorkian, who passed away on Friday, sparked a heated debate about assisted suicide, but he also raised awareness about end of life and hospice care. What kind of support is available to patients and their family? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What does it mean to die with dignity? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Robert Brody, chief of the Pain Consultation Clinic and former chair of the Ethics Committee at San Francisco General Hospital and member of the board of directors for Compassion and Choices, an organization focusing on end of life care.

Robb Miller, Executive Director, Compassion & Choices of Washington,

Donald Schumacher, President and CEO National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization.
