SUMMARY:Saying Goodbye: Preparing for Death - Film Screening and Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Join us as we showcase our 2nd film in the When You Die Trilogy\, followed by a heartfelt Q&A. This event is a part of the Legacy Expo. \n\nThe When You Die Project is pleased to screen the second chapter in the When You Die documentary trilogy in partnership with the second annual Legacy Expo\, and sponsored in kind by Amica – The Glebe Senior Lifestyles. Following the screening there will be a Q&A and discussion with light refreshments\, giving you a chance to learn\, reflect\, and share your thoughts in a relaxed setting. Whether you’re curious or seeking comfort\, this event offers a supportive space to connect and prepare together. \n\nDoors open at 1:30pm.\nScreening starts at 1:45pm.\n2nd Floor Theatre Room at Amica – The Glebe Senior Lifestyles\n\nSaying Goodbye: Preparing for Death\nThrough stories from professionals who have spent their careers at the bedside\, “Saying Goodbye” opens the door to good conversations about what is possible as we pass from this life\, and what that may look like for us and our loved ones. It asks the questions so many of us avoid: How can we talk about death? What is a good death? Does the body need help to die? What quality of life is enough for us? Where do we want to die? What is a conscious death? Could we have one? \nExploring what happens after death not only helps us decide how we want to be cared for at the end of life\, but it reduces our fear of death and that\, as is often said\, helps us live more fully. \nExperts featured in the documentary: Rev. David Maginley\, M.Div; Rev. Olivia Bareham; Dr. Ann Marie Chiasson\, MD; Julie McFadden\, RN; Dr. Penny Sartori\, PhD; Dr. Peter Fenwick\, MD; Sue Brayne\, MA; Dr. Anthony Bossis\, PhD; Dr. Andrew Holecek\, DDS; Jill Schock\, MTS; Dr. Laurie Mallery\, MD; Dr. Paige Moorhouse\, MD. \n\nWatch the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guadH4kwZMw  \n  \nLimited Tickets available for this one day only event: https://tinyurl.com/Expo-SG

SUMMARY:The Legacy Expo
DESCRIPTION:The Legacy Expo: Shifting the narrative from taboo and fear to open dialogue\, learning\, and community strength. \nThe Legacy Expo is a three-day community event designed to connect\, educate\, and empower. While the weekend includes a networking event and documentary film screening\, at the heart of the weekend is the Legacy Expo on Sunday  May 3rd\, a free event for the public from 12-3pm at the Glebe Community Center.  \nWith over 30 vendors and four engaging presentations\, attendees can explore topics ranging from downsizing and navigating life’s next chapter\, to caregiver support and resources (online and in-person)\, hospice care for both humans and pets\, grief in the workplace\, and the role of artistic creativity in healing. Interested in learning about soundbaths or how to talk to children about grief? Those are just two of the workshops being offered during the day. There truly is something for everyone. \nThe Legacy Expo highlights the depth and diversity of services available in the Ottawa region for everyone\, but specifically those who are aging\, stepping into caregiving roles\, planning ahead\, or simply wanting to be informed before it’s too late. It’s about being proactive\, not reactive. \nToo often we hear\, “I wish I had known about this sooner.” The Legacy Expo exists to make sure you do. \nTo find out more and to view our online program\, visit our website: thelegacyexpo.com\, follow us on Instagram: @the_legacy_expo and register for your free ticket today: https://tinyurl.com/2ndLegacyExpo
