Courage ?

Why have we turned away from the natural time of death?
It shouldn't be a time of fear, everyone does it!
This man is doing what everyone should do, hold their loved-ones
hand and have it happen at home naturally.
This guy has help from Hospice come to his home for his mother.
No, she is not eating, but this is natural.
So he provides a tiny liquid dribble off a straw.

Of course most people do not have this "luxury" for their loved one.
Including myself.
Thinking more about this, I have witnessed death many times and have held animals as they have died in not so easy ways. I suffered PTSD because of it....
