In our final episode for Respect Life Month, Dr. John O'Brien joins us to discuss the dignity of human life and the Catholic perspective on end-of-life care. In light of New York's Medical Aid in Dying Act, we explore the Church's teachings on physician-assisted suicide, the difference between allowing natural death and intentionally ending a life, and how we can provide compassionate care that respects the dignity of every person.
