AT New Thought Vermont, 614 Main St, Weston VT

Grief while facing loss can be paralyzing, but is often most difficult during the holiday season. Share your thoughts with others on Saturday, November 16 from 1pm-4pm at New Thought Vermont in Weston VT through discussion with Susan MacNeil and Kasey March.

Susan MacNeil, author of 18 Minutes: A Daughter's Primer on Life & Death, will share the experience of spending the last 18 minutes of her mother's life while on a hospital phone that wasn't amplified. Kasey March is an end-of-life doula, a trained International End of Life Doula (INELDA) who serves as a person to help guide and console a dying person, their family and friends during transition toward death. The conversation will offer a chance to talk about the grief of loss and preparing for a good death through the lens of their own unique experiences.

Sharing their insight, the session will provide a framework for others to join the conversation about all aspects of loss and offer a deeper dive into specifics around the grief of end-of-life challenges and issues. The event is not intended to be a support group, although the conversation will be conducted in a compassionate, loving environment. Information about how you can participate in the 'Phones for Patients' campaign, as a result of MacNeil's experience, will also be available.

MacNeil will conduct a reading and book-signing, and March will provide resources and insight into her work as a death doula. Coffee, tea and cake will be available. Adults 18+ are welcome, RSVP is not required and there is no charge to attend. For more information, find March and MacNeil on:
