About this event
Death with Dignity: Choice Not Chance
Tuesday, Feb 11 at 6:30PM
Zoom Presentation
Please join us for the second in a series of presentations about End of Life Planning.
This presentation will be by Janis Landis from the FEN (Final Exit Network), a non-profit organization that believes that all competent adults have the right to make their own end of life choices.
This talk will give us a chance to talk freely about our fears around death and dying and will provide strategies that lessen those fears and empower us to choose a good death.
Topics will include:
Introduction to Final Exit Network
What is meant by a “good death”
Patient rights and protections.
Institutional obstacles to achieving a good death
End of life choice.
Leaving a legacy.
Planning for our own death should we be diagnosed with a serious illness such as cancer, dementia, Alzheimer's and Parkinson.
If you have questions, you can submit them when you register, during the presentation, or by emailing them to budlet@att.net.

Janis's Bio
My professional career was spent at the Internal Revenue Service. Upon retirement, I turned my
attention to the only topic less popular than taxes: death. I started actively volunteering at the
Final Exit Network. FEN believes, as I do, that all competent adults have the right to make their
own end of life choices. I served as President of FEN from 2015 until June 2019. I continue to
serve on the Board of Directors.
