Sat. April 8, 10 am - 1 pm, Dr. Priya Carden, founder of Maple Tree Healing Clinic, who is dual-certified in the fields of internal as well as hospice/palliative care medicine, and recognized as one of the top physicians in these fields here in Eugene, will discuss how patients, families and doctors can take a conscious approach to Care and Medicine for the Dying.
"While death is uniformly inevitable, the process of dying is not. There is a continuum of life and death, and how we die is determined by our ability to navigate this continuum. There are concerted efforts to live well, but it is equally important to acknowledge that part of living well is to embrace the process of dying so that one may also die well."
