There are so many times when we just seem to expect people to be dishonest rather than honest. We expect individuals to try to take advantage of other people whenever they can. And we sometimes expect politicians not always to be honest in their dealings. And we even expect students, sometimes, to cheat on exams or to do things to help their scores. I wonder that if it's really fair to these people, because I still think there are honest people.

The other day a very good friend of mine and I were in a restaurant. When the cashier gave him back his money after we got out of the restaurant, he realized that he had ten or fifteen dollars more than he was supposed to have. He didn't even hesitate at all. He went right back in and gave it back, and of course, the cashier was very happy.

But, I was pleasantly surprised, because it means that there really are people running around who are honest.

Nowadays when people grow old, we often send them to nursing homes. When they get sick, we transfer them to a hospital, where children are forbidden to visit terminally-ill patients—even when those patients are their parents. This deprives the dying patient of significant family members during the last few days of the life and it deprives the children of an experience of death, which is an important learning experience.

Some of my colleagues and I once interviewed and followed approximately 500 terminally ill patients in order to find out what they could teach us and how we could be of more benefit, not just to them but to the members of their families as well. We were most impressed by the fact that even those patients who were not told of their serious illness were quite aware of its potential outcome.

It is important for family members, and doctors and nurses to understand these patients' communications in order to truly understand their needs, fears and fantasies. Most of our patients welcomed another human being with whom they could talk openly, honestly and frankly about their trouble. Many of them shared with us their tremendous need to be informed, to be kept up-to-date on their medical condition and to be told when the end was near. We found out that patients who had been dealt with openly and frankly were better able to cope with the approach of death and finally to reach a true stage of acceptance prior to death.
