Death With Dignity: Lots of opportunities to be in the know

by: Carla

Mon Oct 25, 2010 at 11:51:51 AM MST


( - promoted by Jay Stevens)

A number of great opportunities to learn more about Death With Dignity are on tap this week in Glendive, Miles City and Havre.  

The State of Oregon has had a Death with Dignity law for 12 years. Throughout that time, Barbara Glidewell has been studying how the law works for dying patients and their families in Oregon. Ms. Glidewell wears many hats:among them nurse,  bioethicist, patient advocate, and ombudsman.

There are few people in the nation that understand Death With Dignity and its impact in Oregon better than Barbara Glidewell.

This week, Ms Glidwell is visiting eastern Montana to discuss her experiences with Oregon's law. In many ways, Oregon's experience shows what Montanans can expect under the state's new aid-in-dying policy.

Details after the jump:
