The Proper Care Feeding Of An American Messiah

'The Proper Care & Feeding of an American Messiah' is the mockumentary story of a man who thinks he is a messiah. Not *the* messiah, but rather a local, regionally selected messiah for his own home-town. He's on a quest, desperately trying to raise money for a town-wide rally where he hopes to announce his deity - and to determine his true, god-given 'special purpose' in life - which may or may not have something to do with ailments of the lower gastrointestinal tract, but he won't be sure until he hears more or less directly from Yahweh.

The staff of the Vera Hospice Foundation has been fighting for many years to alleviate the suffering of terminally ill people, both adults and children. Much has been achieved along the way, but much more needs to be done. How to make it so that not only to live, but also to die was not excruciatingly painful?
