“\Whenever serious sickness or injury strikes and your body or mind breaks down, the vital questions are the same: What is your understanding of the situation and its potential outcomes? What are your fears and what are your hopes? What are the trade-offs you are willing to make and not willing to make? And what is the course of action that best serves this understanding?”

“how we seek to spend our time may depend on how much time we perceive ourselves to have.”

“We want autonomy for ourselves and safety for those we love.”
