Facing Death (Frontline documentary)
Description:
Facing Death (Frontline documentary)
PBS Broadcast "Facing Death" - Available to view on-line
This documentary takes a closer look at today's complicated end-of-life decisions. Doctors, patients and families speak with remarkable candor about the increasingly difficult choices people are making at the end of life: when to remove a breathing tube in the ICU; when to continue treatment for patients with aggressive blood cancers; when to perform a surgery; and when to call for hospice.
