About the Presenter
Dr Merran Cooper, a registered medical doctor and physiotherapist, is the founder of Touchstone Life Care, an organisation specialising in planning for end-of-life. After decades of working in healthcare, as well as her own personal experience caring for both her husband through a terminal illness, and her best friend through a debilitating neurological disease, she believes dying is a time of transitioning where deep healing and transformation can occur if we let it.
Dying. Start the conversation is a 10-minute video, written and produced by Merran, featuring intimate stories from people around the world to inspire those who are dying, caring for them, or working in palliative care. It’s excellent - not to be missed!
