They should each have their own forum because they are two totally different things. Having palliative care does not mean end of life.

    Because people posting (and people everywhere) have a poor understanding of the difference between the two.Also, there can be overlap and one can be a continuum of one status to another

    Yes they can be but they are still two different things.
