Three years later, hobbling with knee bandages and a mindset of incurability, I was directed by a colleague to a spiritual healer in a back street in Cambridge. |
But it was obvious to me the incurability of her situation, her prison created by homeopathic cocktails, allopathic cocktails and surgical interference. |
All too often, quality of life is neither protected nor supported adequately between the stage of recognized incurability and death. |
Grief started the minute we got the diagnosis of its incurability. |
The whole thing results in a stage of incurability after about two to three decades and the incurability may show on any part of the constitution. |
Acknowledgments that people with the disease will get worse were rare, and references to incurability and eventual death even rarer. |
