Living for the moment – How important is it in the end of life?
American Journal of Hospice and Palliative Medicine; by Renuka Chintapalli; 10/24
This essay investigates the role of present-moment living in end-of-life care, drawing on reflections from a personal patient encounter in a palliative care setting, Mrs. B, a 63-year-old patient with terminal squamous cell lung cancer, whose experience underscores the impact of living with a sense of fulfillment and joy despite a life-limiting diagnosis.
