When someone dies there's a lot that goes on, and illness and dying aren't situations that you can handle lightly but you can deal with them in a positive way so it's not as depressing. When Beth came in to talk to us she was very positive about her husbands dying process and it seemed like she didn't let it consume her till she became depressed or ruined her life. She dealt with death as living each day to the fullest the last week he had to live. Also similar to the book Tuesdays with Morrie, he was slowly dying and he chose his way on how he wanted to die, which was to die happy and feeling loved. He was able to accomplish that by spending each day with the ones he love and in that time he was able to give out his last thoughts and wisdom to people so that they'll always have something to remember him bye.
In the movie Near Death, they showed everything that goes on with dealing with sickness and death that we don think twice about. When someone is sick in the hospital we always want doctors to do all that they can which I believe is useless, their basically trying to bring a dead body back to life. When at the hospital and making the decision to put someone out of their misery doctors try and flip it so that it seems like your killing the person and to make you feel bad and doctors always say that the patients are receiving "comfort" by letting them lay in a bed with many tubes in them and no chance of ever really being able to live normal again or go home. Everyone deals with death differently even the doctors and nurses take certain approaches when it comes to "caring" for the patients.
