In this Saturday, Feb. 15, 2014, photo, Eldery Pakistani patients and residents at St. Joseph’s Hospice, from left, Ruth Robet, 60, reads the newspaper next to her roommate, Wazeera, 65, while sitting around the stove part of their morning routine, at the female ward of the hospice, in Rawalpindi, Pakistan. Mohammed Aqeel spent weeks at home in Pakistan waiting for death after suffering a debilitating spinal cord injury in a car crash before friends suggested he come to St. Joseph’s Hospice on the outskirts of the capital, Islamabad. Now 13 years later, his life and those of some 40 others who live on its grounds might be changed forever as this hospital of last resort faces closure over its rising debts.
