The Older and Bolder Group will meet
August 25th, Saturday, 10 am-11:30 am in the Gallery Room at the
Senior Center. The focus will be on "Care at Life's End,
Regardless of Age".
Since the first try was so successful,
we will again use the "prompt" cards, which were developed
by a cooperative association in California of both professional and
lay workers in the field of elder care. Each card contains only one
or a few words, reference ideas and service that we usually don't
want to think about or would be embarrassed to bring up as "personal
concerns". Because the cards are drawn unseen it removes the
participant from the responsibility of claiming it. It is a very
"freeing" technique. We also have expanded the subject to
include the unexpected death that can happen at any age, since
decisions then can sometimes be hurriedly made without previous plans
or second thoughts.
All are welcome to attend. Please
allow time to find the scarce parking space.
