Wisconsin Bishops - Now and at the Hour of Our Death

The Wisconsin’s Catholic bishops just released the third edition of their pastoral letter on end of life health care decision-making and advance care planning, Now and at the Hour of Our Death. 

The letter voices the bishops’ concern and compassion for those facing critical health care decisions, and shares a moral and ethical framework for making such decisions.  Fortunately, the letter does not go far as the radical Catholic Medical Association white paper about which I will be writing more soon.
