Tough Calls

The health care debate grows more interesting to me every time I think about it, read about it, and now blog about it. There are many tough calls when confronting health questions because it affects everything and everyone in your life. How would you handle the end of the life of your grandparents, parents, siblings, husband, wife, and yourself. Death is the number one fear of all people, which is amazing to think about, considering we all face it. How can the only absolutely guaranteed about life scare us so much. To me the biggest reason is we don't talk about it at all or nearly enough, people get mad when you spoil a movie they haven't seen, because they didn't know how it ends. We know how this life ends, for all of us we cannot escape it, this health care debate has everyone trying not to say death, with the new buzz phrase "end of life care." I think this is an opportunity to think about your mortality, no one lives forever, think long and hard how you would like to go.
