Think Again: Peter Goodman on End-of-Life Options

10/3/2022

 
On today's program, Peter Goodman shares his personal experience of mortality within his family, and of supporting his father's decision to end his own life. Peter touches briefly on New Mexico's 2021 "Elizabeth Whitefield End-of-Life-Options Act."

The conversation weaves through personal and cultural attitudes toward death and dying, our capacities for denial and distraction, the counsel of the ancients, and how awareness and acceptance of our certain mortality also influences our living days. Peter reads some thought-provoking poetry, including a very moving piece about a much-loved young man from our community - who died from a lightning strike a few years ago - and who's loss and absence still weighs heavily on our hearts.
