My mother, an rn, was near death a couple of weeks ago. She was in that semi-conscious sleep/dream netherworld that those who are dying often live in for a while. I saw my father, a cardio md, in it as well before his death. Do you know what they each reported thinking/dreaming about? Not their careers, I assure you. Not a word about their careers. They reported thinking only about their spouses and their children. If there is a stronger testament to what is ultimately important in life, I haven't a clue as to what it would be.
