If you don’t like hospice, try HOLISTIC end-of-life care
What is holistic end-of-life care?
• Like natural childbirth, it’s the path to NATURAL DEATH.
• It engages the mind, body and spirit in self-determination and personal fulfillment
• It reimagines the end of life as a spiritual journey, not a medical conquest.
How is holistic end-of-life care different from hospice?
• HOSPICE is IMPOSED on patients who have no chance of recovery.
• Hospice provides patients standard medical care to ease their suffering.
• Hospice patients often feel
APPREHENDED by the Grim Reaper.
• HOLISTIC end-of-life care is CHOSEN by those who feel complete in life.
• Holistic care adds SPIRITUAL well-being to PHYSICAL comfort for peace of MIND.
• Holistic persons are PREPARED to leave the Grim Reaper empty-handed.
You can either end life by way of the medicolegal system
OR
Plan to have your final wishes met by a concierge physician
