Dear Stephen, we cannot think of many people who could be better advocates for those in pain and suffering. All strength to your hands.
Congratulations, Dr Stephen and I believe that you &your team will be able to alleviate the pain suffered by the patients of all diseases, specially terminal patients combating the deadly disease CANCER. I personally acted as CAREGIVER for my nearest and dearest wife who fought relentlessly with high spirit of mental power. One humble question, whether palliative care can extend the lifespan arresting the disease, besides pain relief.
