While We're Still Here

My parents died within five months of each other. It was a blur. Several years later, to help a friend discuss her end of life, I went to a Death Cafe. That was it. No going back. Now the subject of dying and death is a topic of daily conversation. Once we acknowledge that 100% of us will die, we can begin to understand the importance of sharing our final wishes and we can work at leaving nothing unsaid to our people.  We can empower others to do the same. Let's discuss how to live for today knowing that we all will die.
