A “good death” is often described as dying without suffering, dying on one’s own terms, having quality of life until the end, or having everything prepared for those left behind. Many people are fortunate to experience this kind of a comfortable journey to end-of-life. Some come to this naturally, as life simply ends. But some achieve a good death because they’ve taken steps in advance to make sure their wishes can be honored. Join Wendy Norman, founder of the end-of-life planning organization, Worry-Free Wednesdays, as she shares stories about individuals who thoughtfully planned ahead, and thankfully, “died well”.
Wendy has been researching and engaging with end-of-life issues for over 15 years. Her interest was sparked by her mother's diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer's in 2006. This is when she learned how important it is to have a plan before becoming ill, especially when cognitive decline is involved. Wanting to help others understand the value of pre-planning, she became an end-of-life planning consultant in 2017. In 2019, she left a 25-year career in marketing and program management to invest her time and energy toward end-of-life planning, education and awareness. In 2020 she helped create and lead the team of volunteers to launch an education and awareness program called End of Life Ready hosted by End of Life Washington. Building on that experience, Worry-Free Wednesdays was created to broaden and deepen end-of-life education. Wendy is a native of Seattle where she currently still lives and works.
