The #1 reported reason people avoid doctor’s appointments is because they’re afraid of finding out they have a serious illness.

If you have that fear, that’s normal and you’re not alone. Also remember, there is basically no serious illness that isn’t less serious if you catch it sooner.

Death is happening more often than birth. The largest population this country has seen and drop in births.

Silence is no certain token that no secret grief is there;
Sorrow which is never spoken is the heaviest load to bear.

I’ve been a communications pro for almost 25 yrs and it pains me how we lost our language around death and grief once our dead were swiftly removed from our homes to be tended to behind closed doors. This is why I’ve joined the movement to reclaim our rites of passage around dying.

When a good friend's loved one passes away, it can be hard to find the right thing to say. NPR readers share words of comfort they've shared with others — or wish they'd heard themselves.

One Year Anniversary!!! Thank you, everyone!!! It's been a ride. This next year, I'm going bolder, deeper, and calling out the BS when it comes to dying and death.

Holidays and Advance Care Planning go together like mashed potatoes and gravy. It's hard to imagine one without the other.

Ryan Gosling wrapped in Christmas lights with text: Hey girl, all I want for this holiday season is for you to tell me your thoughts on artificial life support and your ideas regarding an acceptable quality of life.

The sudden loss of intimacy is a consequence of the death of a partner that is rarely spoken about. Suzanne Elvidge doesn't duck the subject here:

First Christmas without my dad...

Grief is hard.
Holidays harder.

Just trying to get through one xmas light at a time.

If my headstone read something like,
“…a good dude who sometimes got ahead of himself”,
I’d be okay with it.
It’d be a bet on slang remaining constant, or really funny in a 100 years.

Scent seems to be today's theme.
Herbalists know rosemary's powerful properties that extend well beyond the kitchen. But did you know this plant was once part of deathcare?
#CommunityDeathcare #EOLDoula #DeathTalk #ReclaimingDeath
Text says: Did you know? Sprigs of rosemary were often carried by people in the funeral procession and cast onto the coffin before burial, much as roses are today.

In case someone you know is marking the 12 days of Griefmas, here are some suggestions...
#HolidayGrief #GriefJourney #DeathTalk #CommunityDeathcare
12 Things to Say to a Grieving Friend instead of Happy Holidays: -I'm thinking of you during this season. -I'm here for you if you need to talk or just be together. -It's okay to remember and honor (deceased's name) during the holidays. I'm thinking of them, too. -I know this season can be tough. I'm here to support you. -You don't have to put on a brave/merry face for me. -It's okay to grieve, no matter how long it's been. -Take it one day at a time. I'll keep checking in. -Your feelings are valid and I'm here to listen. -If you need a break from the holiday rush, I'm here to help. -I'm lighting a candle/hanging an ornament/baking cookies this year in memory of (deceased's name). -I can run errands or help wrap gifts if you need. -If you'd like, we can adjust our plans to make this holiday more low-key and peaceful.
