Could you legally choose to stop eating and drinking at the end of life?
For many people, the answer is yes—but few understand how Voluntary Stopping Eating and Drinking (VSED) works, when it is appropriate, or how it can be made as comfortable as possible.
Join the Hemlock Society of San Diego for a thoughtful discussion featuring three unique perspectives.
Laura Carroll shares her story of assisting her 86-year-old father’s VSED end-of-life choice. With support of a doctor, hospice, and concierge nursing care he was able to end his life on his own terms.
Dr. Brian Graham, Medical Director of Topkare Hospice.
Nicole Soares, founder of EcoLove Transitions who guides patients and families through the VSED process.
They’ll explain the medical, practical, and emotional support that can help ensure a peaceful and dignified end-of-life experience. Whether you’re planning ahead for yourself, supporting a loved one, or simply want to understand all of the legal end-of-life options available, this program will provide practical information, compassionate guidance, and an opportunity to ask questions.
