This Friday (9/13) at 3:30 p.m. – The Humanities Program Hosts John Y. Rhee, MD/PhD

Can we flourish at the end of life? End-of-life often comes with decreasing physical and mental functionality, and many patients fear their final days and what their quality of life may look like. But the period of one’s end-of-life may also present possibilities for a unique realization of human goods — such as the consolidation of a personal narrative, a deepening of close relationships, and a growth in character and virtue. With a contextualized understanding of what human flourishing may look like as death approaches, we find unique aspects of human flourishing particular to the end-of-life context.
