Michael Hebb Is Inviting You To A Death Dinner

Let’s put it all out on the table. How we end our lives is the most important and expensive conversation Americans are NOT having, says Hebb. Americans are not dying the way they want to die. 75% of Americans want to die at home, but only 25% do. 62% of U.S. bankruptcies are incurred due to healthcare costs, and the leading cause is end-of-life care. It has been suggested that we should expand the definition of life to include death, instead of seeing death as the failure to live. Dying is not losing the fight but continuing the journey, and doing so with dignity is something worth talking about.
