The Traveler's Guide to Life
This podcast, hosted by Hospice of St. Lawrence Valley, encourages conversations about topics most people avoid. The short conversations cover everything from end-of-life planning, palliative care, hospice care, death, dying, and grief. Our hope is that by talking about these things more everyone will be able to face them with a little more courage, compassion, and maybe even a laugh or two.
It's a journey we're all on. Let's talk about it!

Feelings Along the Way

Today, we’re exploring our feelings along the way, particularly near end of life. Something you really don’t hear people discussing a whole lot.
Talking about death generally makes people uncomfortable, especially in our society. But sometimes, because we don’t talk about it, witnessing the emotions people go through or physical changes that happen to a person while they are dying can feel scary.
