About this Event

Host Organization: Healthy Workplace

How do you want to show up for the people you love during the final phase of their lives?

Join us for a reading and discussion with Dr. Katherine Arnup, retired Carleton University professor and author of the new book “I don’t have time for this!” A Compassionate Guide to Caring for Your Parents and Yourself. You can register here: http://carleton.ca/healthy-workplace/cu-events/caring-for-your-parents-caring-for-yourself/

“I don’t have time for this!” provides a roadmap for the journey into aging, illness, and dying that we will all travel—ourselves and the people we love. With gentle persuasion and moving stories from her family, her clients, and her years as a hospice volunteer, Katherine Arnup shows how to overcome the fear of aging and loss so we can show up for the challenges and opportunities in our lives.
