Agree announce during a medical consultation, that death is near, is not without subjective effect. Fear and trauma: violence against the illusion of immortality, which supports the protective subject his everyday life, opening made on the gulf of abandonment.

It is from this that unfolds this question on the subject and he manages to do-or not-of this announcement. We will then be brought to account for what the actual death, announced the place of the Other, this has to produce an annihilation of the symbolic function that it supports, in that its lack is suddenly missing. The clinic-specific palliative care then shows the implications of such a subjective vacillation and the possible use of the subject inhis attempts to overcome the lack of the Other.
