Wow, All I got to say if I'm dying in the ICU, I want Dr. Seheult to do the coordination of my care and discussion with my family! This has to be one of the best discussions I have seen. Thank you very much. I wish I could give more than 5 stars.

As an end stage patient, I appreciate the courage of your convictions. I choose to believe that more of 'us' are less afraid of having them than our families and health care professionals.
