Join BJ Miller, MD, and Dani Chammas, MD for an informal and interactive conversation on how dialectics play a role in experiencing illness.
Too often, our journeys through illness get simplified. In reality, our experiences are complex, rich, and far from simple. When we create a space to hold dialectics-- to hold two seemingly opposing things as simultaneously true, with neither negating the other-- we often come in touch with a more authentic truth. That we can have hopes and fears, can feel alone and connected, can be the same and different.... all at once. Join us for a deep dive into many of the dialectics present in the serious illness experience right down to the most fundamental one: that we are all both living and dying. This is sure to be a thoughtful and authentic discussion about what it means to be human.
All online discussions begins with a basic overview before opening up to the group for Q&A and conversation. This session should feel as supportive as it does educational, so bring your questions and comments, or feel free to just listen. Together, we’ll explore real life examples and address your questions.
Discussions are held online and once registered, you will receive a link via email to join on video or by phone.
