AADMD INFO BLAST - For AADMD Members and Friends

While the AADMD Info Blasts strive to provide current articles of interest to its members, there are past articles that are timeless and provide significant evolving perspectives. This article on the end of life first appeared in The New Yorker in 2010 by Dr Atul Gawande. Many AADMDers are challenged with end of life concerns for their patients with ID/DD and their families and would benefit from having this article under their belt.
