A Community Partners Presentation: Community-led discussion with distinguished guests follows the film! Monday February 6 at 6:00 pm Free and open to all
Presented by Hospice of Michigan and the MCCOA
The short film BEING MORTAL, produced by PBS and based on Dr. Atul Gawande’s New York Times bestselling book, looks at how doctors can best help patients who are near the end of their lives.
Terminally ill patients have to ask themselves what matters most, and how to spend the time they have. But it’s also an important question for those of us whose deaths aren’t imminent: What do we truly care about in this world? We don’t need to wait until our last days to celebrate what matters most — or to tell the people who matter most how we feel.
