What do you mean Palliative Care isn’t about dying?
Join Director Ruth Kohut, and Program Coordinator Jaclynn Cote, of Living with Advance Illness Centre, as they walk us through not only their programs but also share and normalize the feelings of everyone involved when a life-changing diagnosis is given. They will dispel the myths around palliative care, and share that it is about lifestyle changes, living the best life you can and that it is important to support not only the one with the diagnosis but also the people who support them.
