"Your 87-year-old father is lying in a hospital bed breathing with the help of a ventilator and the doctor say he’s unlikely to recover. Your sister insists on doing everything possible to keep him alive. You’re sure Dad wouldn’t want that. Can an iPhone app developed in Vancouver settle the argument? Jamie Shafer, a self-described serial entrepreneur, says his app My Own Voice was created with this scenario in mind."
Hoping to call the shots from your death bed? There’s a app for that | Vancouver Sun:
You have come to the right place, and we are glad you are here. This is a safe place to share stories of love and loss, devastating grief, exhausting care-giving, memorials, advanced directives, mourning, hope, and despair. We want to hear about about what you wish you had known or done differently, what you wish those around you had known or done differently, and what went right. We will never tell you to move on or find closure. "What cannot be said will be wept." Sappho
