Friends of Heroes - Cancer Support Directory

After a successful workshop with Kristie Scott, who is a former funeral director and now owner of The Death Planner. Below is some helpful information for anyone in the process of estate planning and final wishes.

For cancer patients, who are already facing the reality of their mortality, actively addressing the topic of death can have a profound impact on their lives. Many people have experienced grief or know someone who has, making them more aware of the importance of accepting their own mortality. In the context of cancer, accepting the finite nature of life can be seen as a positive step towards finding peace and making the most of the time they have. By breaking the taboo surrounding discussions about mortality, cancer patients can take control of their own lives and develop a healthier relationship with their own end. Ultimately, this can lead to a better understanding of oneself and a more meaningful journey through the challenges of cancer.

Endings matter, so when it comes to death planning, we are here to help and would love to hear from you!
