摘要

This is a story about the experience of making decisions about when to choose interventions near the end of life. It is about the difficulty of making those decisions for a close relative. It is not a story about good and bad doctors, though their recognition of the difficulties can make a difference. And it is about a special difficulty faced by people with a long term progressive neurological illness and their close relatives. As relatives, we have been caring for people with illnesses whose potentially lethal complications can be managed medically so that the person stays alive with ever increasing disability. We fear that dying will be drawn out interminably, past our capacity to care. Ideas of autonomous decision making by the ill person are not sufficiently helpful—nor is there just one choice to make about whether to accept interventions, but many decisions, each one closely related to particular circumstances. We would be helped by doctors and nurses who were prepared to advise when further treatment might be too burdensome.
