...what I find troubling are all the messages, emails, tweets I’ve gotten over the past two weeks saying ‘how can you advocate for families being more involved in the death care process because…Ebola!” If your seventy-five year old mother in Kansas dies of pancreatic cancer under hospice care she doesn’t have Ebola, where would she have gotten Ebola? There’s no Ebola. We know what death from Ebola looks like, it’s horrific. No one has secret Ebola disguised as a sudden heart attack in their sleep. To say that all corpses are dangerous because of Ebola is like saying don’t take your child to a park a child was kidnapped at a park once’ or ‘don’t fly you have a one in eleven million chance of dying’ it’s Rush Limbaugh claiming that president Obama thinks we deserve Ebola as an atonement for slavery, which he said by the way. It’s fear mongering and we’re smarter than that.
