As priests, deacons, chaplains, nurses and doctors, we accompany people as they try to cope with the suffering of physical or emotional pain, with the prospect of a precarious and painful life in the face of a terminal illness, and with the reality of approaching death, be it their own or that of a loved one. For this reason, we wanted to begin our reflections this morning talking about the Culture of Life. (More)
