Austin area friends . . . We will be offering our end-of-life options class (via Lifetime Learning Institute) on Monday mornings from 10 to noon, from September 9th through October 28th.
Details:
WHAT TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:
If the idea of discussing end-of-life matters makes you a bit uncomfortable, attending this class will help turn those apprehensions into opportunities for clarity and even some fascinating discoveries! Join us for a class made to empower you with reliable, and often intriguing, insights, so you can approach life's final chapter with confidence and peace of mind. During our time together, you'll learn from subject matter experts who are not here to sell anything but are eager to answer your questions. They will provide you with information about price variances at local funeral homes and cemeteries; prepaid funeral contracts; the comforting world of hospice care; the gift of organ, tissue, and whole-body donation; eco-friendly green burial options; and much more. Our sessions will invite you to engage in relaxed, small-group discussions, to help you identify your own end-of-life values and priorities, and encourage you to review or complete your living will and other advance directives that state your wishes should you be unable to speak for yourself. For maximum benefit, we recommend taking time between class meetings to review and reflect on what you've learned. Please bring $10 for extensive handouts to our first class meeting. Limit 16.
