Guest speaker Ronald P. Hamel, Ph.D., senior director of Ethics-Catholic Health Association of the United States, presents the annual McCormick Lecture. How we die in America today has been forged over the past 40 or so years. A “fragile consensus” exists about the ethical, legal, and medical rightness of forgoing life-sustaining treatment at the end of life. But is this consensus beginning to erode due to influences from within society and the Church? And what might this mean for how Americans and Catholics approach end-of-life decision making in the future, and for how we die?
