text: Lynn Wilson's story is compelling and inspiring. Most of us do not have the advantage of viewing birth,death and treatment from the point of view of a cultural anthropologist.That point of view shows us that rather than some universally RIGHT way,there are many ways,many choices,based on who we are as individuals,family beliefs, cultural preference and advice from the mental health and medical practitioners with whom one chooses to collaborate at the end of life.The main concept is respect and choice of how ,where, and with whom one chooses to say Aloha.
  House Bill 201  provides for freedom of choice and compassionate care at end of life.
