Tina, a palliative Care nurse explains end of life choices to make you more comfortable when you are in the end stage of life (dying). It is the service you use if you opt out or cannot benefit from medical treatment, or (in my case) start to die because a match is never found. I have a feeling that because I am HLA Class 1 and Class 2 w/DQ genes, a match is going to be extremely difficult to find, and that is why they are having me see the Palliative Care Nurse.
