Guest: Sr. Rosemary Flannigan
Featured Saint of the Day: St. Agnes of Assisi
Today Deacon Rick and Jenny spoke with Sr. Rosemary Flannigan. Sr. Rosemary is an 82-year-old Sister of St. Joseph of Carondelet. In 1992 she joined the staff of a bioethical institute. One of the messages Sr. Rosemary wanted to leave with our listeners was that in every hospital there is a group that is prepared to help them think through not what can health care do for them, but what ought they ask their health care to do for them. She also spoke of detachment for our earthly life. Sr. Rosemary impressed the point that man was created for God and at the end of life, death is the means by which we return to Our Father. Sr. Rosemary encouraged our listeners to talk about end-of-life issues within our families before they become an issue.
