We have decided to run an article on the LifeChannel. The Life channel runs on monitors in GP surgery waiting rooms The article will run in a loop system with other health related topics all day for two weeks, and hopefully we will expose a large number of people from all age groups and ethnic groups to the Dying Matters message.

The article is eye catching and the voice over says Making the most of every single moment of your life, before your life comes to an end (visual images then depict swim with dolphins, ride in a hot air balloon learn to play a musical instrument) And if you want to make sure people are aware of your wishes for your end of life care and beyond

Then shouldn't you be doing something about it? The choices that we all enjoy in life are there for people towards the end of life too but if you don't share your wishes with friends and family, how will they know what your wishes are. Whatever your age make some choices today... Because dying matters.
