Event Details

You asked! We listened!!

Following up on our successful Dying to Know Weekend event in spring, we are inviting key members of our community to bring you the practical information about death, dying the grief that you asked for a one-day session.

We are also excited to welcome Dr. Blair Bigham, author of the highly successful book “Death Interrupted: How Modern Medicine is Complicating the Way We Die,” as our keynote speaker. In Andre Picard’s words, “ He will make you re-think what it means to die and how you want to live your final days! “

Whether you are a healthcare professional, a caregiver, a student, or simply curious about the subject matter, this event offers a valuable opportunity to explore one of life’s most profound experiences.

Livestream Option: 
A live stream link will be available for the panel presentation and Dr. Blair Bigham’s talk for those who have registered. It will be available for 48 hours. The individual seminar choices will not be live-streamed.
