Glen Abbey Branch

Living in Smalls is a philosophy that emphasizes finding joy in the tiniest pleasures.

As Paula's husband, Bert, progressed through his disease, Paula found pleasure in his abilities even as they diminished.

In this fourth and final session of the Caregiver Insights series, Paula discusses how she found pleasures when they were not small at all to the last breath when they were tiny yet impactful.

Discussion topics will include:

Finding the moments of joy
Responding to little miracles
Knowing that small is relative.
This workshop is open to caregivers as well as health care providers that support family caregivers in their work.

Registration is required.

Skills learned: Information literacy,
