Abstract
"Life is a gift from God that should be respected and protected through all of its stages. Care for the sick and the elderly is part of God' s call for Christians. Palliative care and emotional support are appropriate responses to those who suffer from terminal diseases or are near death. We must not abandon those in need. However, we must not deliberately bring about their death even for compassionate reasons."
