IN THE NEWS

Kathy Butler shares her intense journey of watching her father die an unnecessarily slow and painful death, all the while her mother, continuously caring for her father, suffers silently. In her article featured in The New York Times, What Broke My Father’s Heart, Kathy recalls the fragmented and misshapen medical system that prolonged her father’s life, ultimately endangering her mother’s health and stability.

Palliative care, patient and family centered care focusing on the relief of pain (physical, spiritual, and psychosocial), is often underutilized and misunderstood by the general public. Kathy’s journey is a prime example where palliative care could have guided her family through more life-affirming care for her father, avoiding complicated and unnecessary procedures. Read their story here.
