Up to 80% of our health is impacted by factors outside of a hospital or clinic. Social, intrapersonal, environmental, and lifestyle factors play a role in our overall health and are not always addressed in a traditional healthcare setting. Check out this article from Time Magazine that discusses the role of a healthy diet in our health and healing.

Even the radiolab guys are talking about advance planning! Interesting study they cite about physicians' preferences regarding their own end of life care.
The Bitter End We turn to doctors to save our lives -- to heal us, repair us, and keep us healthy. But when it comes to the critical question of what to do when death is at hand, there seems to be a gap between what we want doctors to do for us, and what doctors want done for themselves.

This interview with Atul Gawande was on the PRI's The World last night. You can listen to the story and also join the discussion. We will be discussing these topics at our symposium on March 28.
Spreading my father's ashes on the Ganges felt like a link across the globe and across generations "What I felt on the Ganges," says Atul Gawande, the surgeon and author of Being Mortal, "was he had brought us there and connected himself to all that was important to him, but he was connecting us as well."
