Editor's Notes
- 6. Discuss Slide 5 mins What gives me meaning? To be in relationship with family/friends/colleagues/environment/home/church To whom do I belong? In other words where do I find a sense of belonging? What keeps me going? The opportunity for creativity/hospitality/ being valued for who I am (validation as a person)/ self worth. A reason for being/relationships with significant others.

- 8. Whole group discussion Whole group discussion Can anyone think of some examples personal or from other people Discuss How do we respond to these questions? What are some appropriate answers? ( As a volunteer/nurse/PCA) What might the person be really asking you? What is under/behind the question? Re will I die? A question like this may indicate that the person does not understand what palliative care is. How will I die? A question like this may be asking for reassurance/ they may be frightened. When will I die? May indicate wanting to put house in order. What comes after death? No one has the whole truth and can really know. We continue on in the lives of those we love and who have loved us. This bond goes on after death. What might they be really asking? To be present with them in their reality, wanting to talk with someone about death, it’s possible they can’t do this with family because they won’t let them. See scenarios: 1 & 2
- We need to: build bridges with conversations -low key type questions if meeting for first times hear a person’s story -past, present, future -How it was -How it is -How it might be build trust & relationship -respect their pace/what they want / don’t want to talk about -respect their choices -silence -maintain confidentiality -allow their autonomy
- Ask what might be happening here?
- Ask what might be happening here?
- Ask what might be happening here?
- See explanatory handout from Shelia Cassidy’s book “Sharing the Darkness”. Read some of this to the group. Or get the group to go into small groups read and discuss.
- We need to practise being able to sit with not having answers, just questions. Give over the responsibility for fixing/ answering or rescuing. Take our cue from the other person. They will change the subject if they need to. We’re not in charge of their life!
