human beings who uphold our fellow human beings …

… and are willing to be accompanied by others …

Zucchi discusses the real choices to be engaged at life’s end.

“Our choice is between hopelessness and hope, between despair and another way of looking at life, where we are not masters of our own destinies but rather human beings who uphold our fellow human beings, and are willing to be accompanied by others. It is about solidarity, affirming the good life and therefore not being afraid to face a good death.”
