Abstract
On July 26, 1994, John William George Swaffer died of AIDS in an Ottawa hospital. His partner shares his experience while caring for John at the hospital. While the hospital did many things well, it seemed that requests for palliative care were poorly communicated among the various physicians involved with John's care. Coordination between hospital doctors and those from a local HIV clinic also seemed poor. The author recommends eight changes to better serve patients with AIDS and other terminal illnesses.
