This discussion between end-of-life experts explored the fundamentally philosophical decision of when it is time to actively begin our own dying process. We took a deep dive into personal examination of quality-of-living standards and learned how to minimize second-guessing about end-of-life wishes by selecting and preparing a capable, qualified, and reliable end-of-life team.
Gabrielle Elise Jimenez: hospice nurse, end-of-life doula, conscious dying educator, author of three books, and creator of the blog titled “The Hospice Heart”.
Stanley A. Terman: bioethicist and psychiatrist, Medical Director of Caring Advocates, author of three advance care planning books, and creator of the “My Way Cards” which create a living will especially (but not exclusively) for advanced dementia.
William Simmons: Hemlock Society of San Diego adviser and former board member, a retired lawyer who has been involved in end-of-life issues for more than 15 years.
