Embracing Life While In Palliative Care
"When you come to the end of your life, how do you mark it's last moments?
This short documentary,Embracing Life, aims to take away the stigma attached to death and dying.
Talking to patients in palliative care, the creators of the film enable conversations about how people feel about approaching the end of their life.
'The aim of the project has been to help build the capacity of communities to talk about death and dying, loss and grief, so that those living with a terminal disease can be better supported,' Sam Kelly from Calvary Health Care Bethlehem told The Huffington Post Australia.
The patients interviewed in this film give an incredibly positive perspective on what it's like to face death.
'Once I accepted that death was to come, I've just held everyday and I try to live it to the fullest,' said Tony Steele.
