Prior to the Second Vatican Council, the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick was commonly called "Extreme Unction," and ordinarily it was administered only when a person was actually dying and all hope for recovery was gone. Now the Anointing of the Sick has become a welcomed and consoling eventa way that the Church supports and intercedes for those who are sick.
