Rachel was a twelve when she had a lung transplant. At fifteen, she is in chronic rejection and living in a hospice facility. Death is inevitably arriving soon for her. Her life is filled with "lasts." When asked by her nurse, she says she would like to die there in the hospice facility with the people who know how to take care of her.


But then she says she has another way she would like to die... On her front porch, wrapped in an afghan, sitting in a rocking chair...with her husband holding her hand.


This girl was in a video we watched in class on Wednesday. Not a dry eye in the room.
