Evaluation of prognostic criteria for determining hospice eligibility in patients with advanced lung, heart or liver cancer

We use “terminal illness” to refer to the life-threatening situation where the patient is likely to die from their illness. We recognize that there are instances where patients far outlive their prognosis. In fact, the chronological dimension of this construct may stretch from days to weeks to years, with patients encountering both helpful therapies and recurrences of disease. It has been pointed out that some chronically ill patients may “never experience a time during which they are clearly dying of their disease.” (See) By “clearly dying,” the authors are referring to acute symptoms that are eminently life-threatening. The living-dying interval we refer to here as mortal time is not primarily defined by days, weeks, months, etc., but rather by the prospect of death in the “short run” and the patients' subjective experience of this phenomenon

(Translated by Stambaugh.,). Martin Heidegger offers 20th century philosophy's most influential interpretation of the character and significance of death. His central insight is that the experience of death is not primarily a biological event facing us at some as yet undetermined future point, but the realization of our finitude, which is also the condition of the possibility of authentic existence. Only resolutely facing our mortality differentiates human beings out of the herd of the “they-self” and into authentic existence Albany: SUNY Press
