“One thing we all learn about life is that we need to expect the unexpected. End-of-life conversations are important to have at any age—whether you're 18, 45, or 80.”

Please join us at a free screening of Consider the Conversation, followed by a panel discussion. Motivated by their personal experiences with loss, two long-time friends created this powerful and inspiring film on the American struggle with communication and preparation at the end-of-life.  The panel discussion includes palliative care and hospice educators:  Dr. Lauren Michalakes, Dr. David Giansiracusa, Dr. Margie Schoeller, and Carol Schoneberg-Robinson.
