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.

Effective-clear and short.
JANET DONNELLY
Good course. I find that too many caregivers think that DNR/I means do not care. Fluids and basic antibiotics are often withdrawn too soon. DNR does not mean do not care.
