SUMMARY:Desserts and Dying
DESCRIPTION:This workshop\, the third in a series offered by SOLADA (Southern Oregon Living and Dying Alliance)\, will focus on understanding the dying process from both emotional and physical perspectives. It is designed for community members seeking to learn about end-of-life options\, how to support ourselves and our loved ones through this transition\, and ways to connect meaningfully during this time.\nPresenters will discuss the stages of dying\, addressing what individuals and families may experience emotionally and physically. The session will explore care options available at home or in a facility\, including Hospice care and Oregon’s Death with Dignity law. Attendees will gain practical insights into how these choices can be navigated\, the factors to consider\, and the resources available to support both the dying and their caregivers. \nAnd yes\, we’ll have desserts to share!
