THINKING WITH THE CHURCH AT LIFE'S END
Each one of us will be leaving here some day. Some will leave suddenly, and others will linger
To help you understand Church teaching on such things as advance directives, euthanasia, and physician-assisted suicide, the National Catholic Bioethics Center provides "A Catholic Guide to End-of-Life Decisions." It includes a health care proxy and an advance medical directive that are in full accord with Catholic teaching.
You can obtain the "Guide" by going to the Center's web site, http://www.ncbcenter.org, or by phoning 617-787-1900.
(Don't mind the picture, that is just Steve being wild and crazy again in a scene from the Jesus video).
