Join us in-person at the Junior League of Birmingham or online on Zoom for this important conversation about end of life decisions.
Hosted by Forge Breast Cancer Survivor Center and the Junior League of Birmingham, this in person and virtual roundtable series tackles cancer topics that are crucial but difficult to discuss. The events start at 11:30 a.m. with free lunch provided. Panel starts at 12:00 p.m. at the Junior League of Birmingham auditorium, 2212 20th Avenue South, Birmingham, AL 35223.
Whether we are dealing with cancer or any other disease, making end of life and palliative care decisions in advance is important. Our panel of experts will discuss what decisions need to be made, documents that need to be created, and the emotional toll these decisions can bring to patients and loved ones. There will be open discussion and questions from the audience after the panel discussion.
