Watching our own parents face the end of their lives often illuminates questions about how we want to navigate that territory. What will support our own end of life experiences? What are the limits of medical intervention? How do we create a gentle circle of care to hold us through our dying time? How do we live fully right up to the end of life? What can we put in place to make our wishes, hopes and dreams clear to those who may take a role in guiding the end of our lives when we are no longer able to make decisions for ourselves? Hattie Bryant learned the importance of thinking about her own end of life watching her mom in her final time and witnessing the pain brought by her mom's failure to address what would serve her best in that time. Hattie resolved to do better for herself and then, to help others do better for themselves, encouraging all of us to do it our own way!
