It appears he.lived his life following G-ds Commands. He passed.away peacefully in a palliative.care unit named after him. Amazing. Humans deserve dignity. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/balfour-mount-death-palliative-care-1.7648430.
Dr. Balfour Mount, who coined the term "palliative care" and whose profound empathy helped revolutionize health-care in North America, died peacefully on Sept. 25 at the palliative care unit that bears his name.

He was 86.

Mount devoted his life to caring for others and alleviating suffering. In interviews, his family and colleagues remembered him as both deeply compassionate and as a fierce advocate for the humanity of those who are suffering.
