The multi-platform “Being Mortal” project for Frontline offers many ways to experience this reporting on end of life care, based on Atul Gawande’s bestselling book. One of these features is a web-based film for Frontline’s YouTube channel highlighting the care of one patient named Clyde Earle, diagnosed a year ago with mesothelioma, and how palliative care doctors in his final weeks of life support him and his wife through a very difficult time.
