Want to know what end-of-life/death doulas do? We've created a graphic showing a common pathway of care - from diagnosis, bridging care supports, care planning, coordinating family & friends, as the end of life nears, and after a death. DM for larger file. #EOL #PM

Completely nonplussed. Today I came across a word in my subject area that I have NEVER heard before. Dier (v): one that dies, or is about to die. Used in abstract and philosophical contexts. Do you ever use this word? #pm #eol #eoldoula
