Synopsis

Reflecting on his own father's illness and death, a doctor comes to terms with his responsibility to understand how his dying charges are coping with illness and death. Sacco questions the popular conception that 'acceptance' is necessary for a 'good' death. He offers a practising physician's reality-check perspective to the experience of caregivers and families with dying parents.
