EPISODE 08: A “SOLO AGER” - WHO ARE THEY AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?
Jennifer O’Brien, the Hospice Dr’s Widow, became a “solo ager” in 20?? when her last living family member, her father, died. Starting with the loss of her brother, David many decades ago, then her mother, her husband, Bob and now her father, she is “solo”.
In her quest as a thought leader and with a deep passion to help others in preparing for end of life, she’s sharing the many challenges she faces as a “solo ager”, the things she must now consider in her own end of life planning, and why we all need to be more aware of how life’s experiences can immediately change how we hope, plan and prepare for the certainty of our own death.
