		<description><![CDATA[I regularly read from the (mostly) Catholic journal First Things.  Although I am not Catholic, I find that the Catholic thinkers have done some wonderful work.  In this article, Michael Gemignani wrote about hospice care in an an American setting (http://www.firstthings.com/onthesquare/2012/01/the-role-of-hospice-in-assisting-a-good-death): In a previous article, I offered as a possible slogan for hospice, “A good life...]]></description>
