“Whether a person is a professional bioethicist, a member of a hospital ethics committee, a pastor or counselor, a colleague, a family member, or a friend helping others make bioethical decisions, the work of bioethics can and should be a service of charity, an act of love, where the authentic good of others is the goal.”
