TEDxHBU

a once in a lifetime, unique opportunity fell into my lap recently and without a second thought or doubt, i said YES. i was asked to give a TEDx talk, the theme being “transformations.” i knew instantly what i needed to talk about. my career has put me in so many beautiful, once in a lifetime, unique situations as i have journeyed with many patients as they have exited this life. i knew that because of the privilege that i have had in entering that most sacred time with others, i had an obligation to share it. in fact, i have felt that great duty to share these experiences ever since my first over thirteen years ago. i have not been able to keep silent about death and my mind has transformed my view of death from fear to viewing it as a potentially beautiful event. and that transformation has taken place only because of the people that i was able to know and experience their death with…intimately.
