Senior Sunrise

When it comes to preparing for death, there is a litany of facets to consider. Most people remember to make preparations for the funeral, the will and medical assistance, but there is also the mental well-being of the person to account for. When death is imminent, there are dozens of questions and fears that generally pop into people’s minds.

In philosophy, religion, literature and art the phenomenon of death is often explored. However, looking at death in our youth is much different from those who are well aware that they have months or weeks to live. During this time, it is important to be supportive and to work with the person to cope with these inevitable doubts, questions and trepidations.
