What does it mean to face the end of life with dignity, faith, and peace?

In this episode of I Choose Life: News and Views, Abigail Lorenzen sits down with Dr. Eustace Fernandez, a pulmonary and critical care physician who brings more than two decades of experience and a deeply Christian perspective to the discussion on end-of-life care. Together, they explore when it’s moral to refuse treatment, how to discern between aggressive and comfort care, and what it means to “suffer well” in a culture that fears pain and loss.

Dr. Fernandez also reflects on his father’s legacy in medicine—how compassion, humility, and a respect for the human person can transform both the practice of medicine and the experience of dying.

It’s a thoughtful and heartfelt conversation about faith, medicine, and the enduring value of every human life.
