What would your last "good day" look like?
Reading a great book called “Being Mortal” by Atul Gawunde, a surgeon. It is about how we have made aging and dying a medical problem in America rather than a part of life. He states that taking a person’s autonomy and life priorities into account when they are dying is more important than keeping them safe.
One of the concepts he talks about is having “good days” toward the end – days that are filled as much as possible with what is meaningful for you in your life.
Got me fantasizing about what my last good day would look like – given a modicum of mobility and mental clarity.
