KPBS radio program on Refusing Food & Fluid
December 4, 2006: Tom Fudge of KPBS.org (San Diego) interviewed Dr. Terman about the Voluntary Refusal of Food & Fluid, as discussed in The BEST WAY to Say Goodbye: A Legal Peaceful Choice at the End of Life. The program is archived at: http://kpbs.org/radio/programs/these_days?id=6702. Among the questions called in were: Do nursing homes have to force-feed patients to earn points for good care? Can Alzheimer's patients use this method? Can thirst and pain be treated? How can you rule out depression? Why having the choice to hasten dying can lead to living longer.
