>> I know it's just drama, but I've seen shows where suffering people were looking for permission from their loved ones to let go, some assurance that they didn't have to keep a stiff upper lip to the bitter end or risk letting someone down or looking like a coward. Also, people fear that death will be painful so explaining to them that it need not be is a kindness. It seems to me it's constructive to let folks know that they have options.
