“Pasados unos meses observé que muchos médicos evitaban rutinariamente referirse a cualquier cosa que tuviera que ver con la muerte. A los enfermos moribundos se los trataba tan mal como a mis pacientes psiquiátricos del hospital estatal. Se los rechazaba y maltrataba. Nadie era sincero con ellos. Si un enfermo de cáncer preguntaba "¿Me voy a morir?", el médico le contestaba "¡Oh, no! no diga tonterías".”
― Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, La rueda de la vida
