Less euphemism and more reality? Less conformity and more creativity? If that sounds like you or who you hope to become, welcome to Date with Death Club. We’ll meet every other month at UUCP to explore topics of aging, death, and dying. Attend one, some, or all sessions. In April, we’ll explore hospice, palliative care, and end-of-life documents. More and more people are using hospice and doing so sooner, which can be helpful to them and their loved ones. Yet, most people who want to die at home end up dying in a facility. In this session, we’ll hear from an expert on hospice and explore end-of-life documents, like advance directives. See more details • • •
