  • A lot of people don’t want to talk about death and dying. Yet, talking about death doesn’t mean it’s going to happen, and it’s usually better to talk about it before it happens - for everyone involved.
    Death and dying are something that a lot of people don’t have a lot of experience dealing with. That’s because over the past several decades, as a society, we have moved death out of the home and into institutions.
    For some, the information I share in this podcast may be an intellectual conversation/ information) - for others, it may hit the heart. It’s one thing to listen to information about death and dying when you’re not right in the middle of it; compared to being in the middle of it and trying to learn more. Listening to and learning about death and dying can be harder when your heart is hurting.
    Many of the most important things tend to range from education around what to expect, preparing by getting their finances straight, and getting advanced directives in order. Consider many things when preparing for the end of life- if you’re lucky enough to have time to do so.
    In my experience, some people have the luxury of this time, and some don’t. Those whose loved one dies unexpectantly are upset because they didn’t have time to resolve unfinished business or get to a place of acceptance ~ compared to those families whose loved ones take months to weeks to ultimately die being upset that it’s taking so long for death to come because it’s emotionally exhausting.
    In this episode of This is Getting Old: Moving Towards an Age-Friendly World, we will discuss end-of-life care- two different types of care; as well as the providers involved and the type of care provided.

    Thank you for the clarification of hospice and palliative care, and what the patient and the family can expect from the two disciplines of care.

    I wish someone would talk about palliative care in dementia. My parent with dementia is in hospice and no one has talked to me about palliative care, ever, along the way.... I.e. in the past TEN years!

    Thank you for this information.
    Since 2020, we’ve been living in a nightmare!!
    Our father (80) passed ‘suddenly’, like many others are doing all over the world.
    Our very healthy
    mother (78) was suddenly left alone and we were faced with home care for her. She has embraced her ‘new situation’ as a child. She’s literally became disabled overnight! My opinion is, she was exhausted taking care of dad and decided to revert back to childhood. Suddenly, she’s stooling in her pants?
    Suddenly she can’t get up and walk?
    It’s unbelievable what has happened to our family after our father died!!

    My experience with hospice was horrifying and a true nightmare. My daughter suffered immensely under their care. Hospuce believes in not giving patient fluids and nutrition. They force narcotics on the patient to keep them from "sufferring". They dont care they are dying of thirst and starvation. Emotonal suppost, the nurse wouldnt even say hello to my daughter when she was alert and saying "lets chat" she just sat there like a log. Might as well have had a dummy.

    Trying to kill my cancer cells without killing me 😂 well, heckins that was a great statement to hear from my family doctor! 😂🎉 Thankyou for this informative video! Theres not really any way to sugar coat the dying process. 😊 BRCA isnt too unbearable since I have very nice doctors. Its been 2 years going on 3. The osteoperosis isnt the best, but I have 1 1/2 more years of zometa infusions to help strengthen the 🦴 bones! Lol. I hope its helping because the pain is miserable! 😅

    I wish someone just say it?
    Does my grandmother being on palliative care, means that she is dying?

    "Talking about death doesn't mean to say it's going to happen"
    I think you need to have a rethink about that sentence because it's a bit confusing, otherwise love your presentation, especially the influence from the East
