I have finally had a moment to review the work of the wonderful Caitlin Doughty. If you don't know her, she's the founder of The Order of the Good Death, an organization designed to overturn the sad, uncomfortable notions we have of death care in our society.
Death has been medicalized, dare I say criminalized, to the point of ridiculousness. I'll have another post soon about my friend's loss of her dear mother - peacefully at home, mind you - and the three-ring circus it turned into.
In the meantime, check out my Amazon review, and pay a visit to The Order of the Good Death!
Caitlin is a great speaker who does some super cool events. Wish I could make it to Seattle!
