His last breath

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Dying alone in a hospital bed is not what I envision when I think about my own death. As a third-year medical student, I have the honor of serving as leader for No One Dies Alone at my medical institution. I want to share my story to inspire others to participate in vigils with one who is dying or to assist in the efforts to contact family.
