Comfort in Care at Life's End

I have such an appreciation and respect for those who work in hospice care. Hospice truly allows people to "die with dignity" and respects life all the way to its natural conclusion.

Karen Ann Quinlan was a young woman who, due to an accident, spent many years in a coma before her death. In her memory, her parents establish the Karen Ann Quinlan Hospice in northern New Jersey. From its relatively small beginnings, today it serves more than 100 patients a day.
