31: Final Comforts | End of Life Planning for Lewy Body Dementia

31: Final Comforts | End of Life Planning for Lewy Body Dementia

In this episode of Lewy Body and Mindful Caregiving, I delve deep into the often overlooked yet vital topic of end of life planning. With great passion and urge, I encourage everyone to make these life plans as early as possible - because passing can occur without warning, catching loved ones off guard.

Our discussion takes a closer look at 'big picture' decisions such as where you want your possessions to go, your preferred burial method, and so on. But more importantly, I highlight the 'frosting on the cake', which entails the more intimate details of your last living moments: the smells, sounds, tastes and people you want around.
