============================


Hospice care: When comfort, not cure, is the focus
By Mayo Clinic staff

Medicine has made amazing strides in preventing illness and curing
disease. Most people live longer, better and with less pain than in the
past. Still, there may come a time in the course of certain diseases when
healing may not be possible. It's at this stage that many people choose
hospice.
