Aging Single #7: Advance Directives For End-Of-Life
In this heartfelt episode, Peter McGraw explores the challenging yet crucial topic of end-of-life planning for Solos with Teri Ashley, a certified advance care planning specialist and hospice volunteer. Teri shares her deeply personal journey that led her to start Mindful Endings, which is dedicated to informing and empowering individuals to make thoughtful end-of-life choices that align with their personal values. Together, Teri and Peter explore the importance of advance directives, the unique challenges Solos face as they age, and the emotional realities of facing end-of-life without a traditional family network, including what to expect from hospice and palliative care. Teri provides invaluable resources and insights on how Solos can prepare for potential diagnoses, such as dementia, build supportive communities, and ensure their wishes are respected.
