Conclusion: I did not have a clear answer for my couple. But after thinking and writing about this question it seems that the most reasonable approach in this crisis is transparent information–no matter how stark.

But we can make it worse by avoiding hard discussions on tradeoffs, the limits of modern medicine and risk. JMM P.S. I am very interested in your rebuttals to any of my assertions but will block vitriol and politicized nonsense.
