How far would you go to sustain the life of someone you love, or your own?
When the moment comes, and you’re confronted with the prospect of pulling the plug, do you know how you’ll respond?
This documentary examines the complicated reality of today’s modern, medicalized death, and offers an unusually intimate portrait of patients facing the prospect of dying in ways that they might never have wanted or imagined.

Do you want to be put on life support if you were in a terminal state?
Would you want to be kept alive with a feeding tube?
Where do you want to die?
Are there rituals you want performed at the end of your life?
According to one survey, nearly 75% of us don't have advance directives (living will or healthcare power of attorney). Even a greater percentage have not had a conversation with their loved ones about their end-of-life wishes.
In this workshop, you will explore important questions about end-of-life decisions and care; script a plan of your wishes, as well as, exploring the process of choosing a healthcare power of attorney who will follow your wishes.
This is an interactive workshop with group discussion, exploration of an end-of-life planning template and one-on-one assistance. Living Will and Healthcare Power of Attorney documents will also be available for completion at future time.

Join us as we explore how bringing this silent companion- death- more fully into our lives can actually create greater peace and joy in life.
Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live. ~Norman Cousins
