Compassionate Communities Conversation #2
August 6 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
“All of us know we will die one day. Few of us think of death as something we can prepare for, and meet with the support of our communities. We return to a place of wholeness in our relationship with death by reorienting ourselves to it, as individuals and communities.” – Aditi Sethi
CCAus had a great start to our Conversation series with the team from Hummingbird House (paediatric hospice in Queensland) who spoke of their commitment to Compassionate Communities practice in creating communities of care. You can watch it here. CCAus is excited to share that for Conversation #2 on August 6 (12.30pm AEST) we will be speaking with Dr Aditi Sethi who inspired an entire community of strangers to care for Ethan Sisser in his final days. From being Ethan’s hospice doctor, she became his death doula. His friend. Ethan shared his final days with the world in the film The Last Ecstatic Days (see below). Aditi is now a champion for community supported end-of-life care. She will join us for a conversation with CCAus Director, and palliative care physician, Dr Jo Doran. Register HERE
