Thank you BC, you were fabulous!

FYI - this is what I look like when I've been awake for a day and a half with only an hour and a half of sleep.

And my flight from Sydney to Launceston isn't for several hours yet. yay...

Who says international research groups aren't glamorous??! We're here and deathy from Australia (me, in pink 🦘), Canada, the UK and USA - and the End of Life Doula Association of Canada & Douglas College have been invaluable in making this all happen.

We're here in New Westminster BC Canada for the International End of Life Doula Research Group (IEOLDRG) symposium and sea-map planning session for the next year or two. We were joined on Zoom by people from several countries who are eager to help shape and inform research directions. Such a rich week we are having - thank you everyone!

Stay tuned for updates.
