Episode 5- Before the Crisis: How to Prepare for End of Life with Grace, not Fear

In this deeply meaningful episode of Call the Nurse, Mindie is joined by not only an incredible physician, but a cherished friend and colleague—Dr. Marwa Kilani.

A board-certified specialist in Hospice and Palliative Medicine and the Medical Director of Palliative Care at Providence Holy Cross Medical Center, Dr. Kilani has dedicated her career to helping patients and families navigate the most vulnerable moments of life with compassion and clarity.

Together, Mindie & Dr. Kilani explore what palliative care truly is, how it differs from hospice, and why so many people misunderstand it. They dive into tender but necessary conversations about getting affairs in order, advance directives, and how to approach end-of-life planning without fear or stigma—even across cultures where it’s rarely discussed.

Dr. Kilani shares how she guides families who aren’t always aligned on healthcare decisions, and what she wishes every family knew before a medical crisis hits. This conversation is both eye-opening and soul-stirring, with reflections on what this work has taught her about love, legacy, and what really matters most.

Whether you’re a healthcare professional, a caregiver, or simply someone wanting to prepare with love and grace—this episode will leave you with wisdom, perspective, and peace.
