Conversation with Dave - what does it mean to be a burden to others?

In less than 10 minutes, Dave shared some significant information about his values and goals for living well. Take some time to watch this video as Dave thinks ahead to what it may be like in the last months and years of his  life.

My husband Garth took this video with my Iphone a couple of days ago. We had been visiting with Dave and his wife Noni when a conversation over coffee prompted me to ask Dave if he would mind doing a "film version" of the conversation. With today's incredibly accessible technology, it's easy to make recordings like this.
Thank you, Dave, for being on-camera - I can sense a movie version coming.

  2. I agree with Julie. What a great thought provoking interview. You are amazing as usual Sue! I recently facilitated a Chronic Disease self management workshop where we talk about Advance Care Plans. One of the participants could not get her parents to discuss this but she found a solution - she told her parents that she wanted to get her own affairs in order, and to do that she needed to talk to them about her wishes. Needless to say they ended up with great conversations and a plan for everyone!
