Editor’s Note: This article was published on May 20, 2020, at NEJM.org. Article In palliative care, one of our favorite tools is the maxim “Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.” We wield it frequently, sometimes indiscriminately, when faced with patients who assert that “It isn’t time for palliative care yet.” We respond by saying something like, “We will continue to hope for [cure/disease response/transplantation/other positive outcome] and help you feel as well as you can. At the same time, we want to prepare just in case [cure/disease response/transplantation/other positive outcome] isn’t possible.” And with that, we encourage patients to begin addressing practicalities such...

Life expectancy in Canada is on the rise. Those born in 1920 could expect to live for 60 years, on average; this had increased to 80 years for those born in 2000. Canadians now survive previously fatal conditions, but survival often comes with a cost. During recovery from critical illness you may see your financial obligations increase, while your income decreases if you take time off work. The top three causes of death in Canada, according to Statistics Canada, are cancer, heart disease, and stroke, but medical advances mean that people are living longer after diagnosis. The Heart and Stroke Foundation notes that there are roughly 70 000 heart attacks in Canada each year, and an estimated...
