Coming up Thursday on Goddard College Community Radio - a ICU physician asks what a good death looks like, and Vandana Shiva talks about protecting the diversity and integrity of life.

9:00 - 10:00 am
The national conversation about death has exploded in the last year. Baby boomers are aging rapidly. And it appears the country is ready to have a conversation now that until recently it has been avoiding. Introducing Dr. Jessica Zitter - one of only a handful of physicians in the United States double board certified to practice both pulmonary/critical care medicine AND palliative care medicine. In other words, she’s the doctor who will save you when you are admitted to the ICU with a gunshot wound, but she is also the doctor who can help you navigate a peaceful and easy way to the end when the end really arrives. We’ll talk about the stories and lessons In her new book, Extreme Measures.
