Yes, I know that a diary is supposed to be filled with important content.
(I also know that it's supposed to have a snappy title, not a self-denigrating one.)
Today, I'm not in the mood to follow rules.
And all I really have to offer is a link.
A link to a story in this week's New Yorker magazine.
It's available online, for free.
Here.

In the article, entitled "Letting Go," Dr. Atul Gawande basically tells the reader how to have the best possible death (it may not be easy or fun, but it will be better for the dying patient and his or her family), and tells America how to solve the health care crisis.
If you're interested in either issue, or if you expect to die some day, if you visit (Diary Plug) The Grieving Room,
READ THIS ARTICLE.
Best, lurker

Here, courtesy of linneatus, is Dr. G's interview on NPR.

And I changed the title, slightly, as per suggestions.
Thank you,
