Nobody’s promised tomorrow
So I’ma love you every night like it’s the last night
Like it’s the last night
If the world was ending, I’d wanna be next to you
If the party was over and our time on Earth was through
I’d wanna hold you just for a while and die with a smile
If the world was ending, I’d wanna be next to you. 🧡

Does death entail suffering? What should be in an advance directive? And how do we start a conversation around dying with our loved ones? 🧐

We cover these topics and more with death educator .downs in Episode 2 of the How to Die in Mexico podcast. Out now via the link in our bio.

When planning for end of life we tend to focus on the advance directive, the power of attorney, or the will. But the ‘softer’ items on our to-do list can also have a profound impact on how we meet our death.

Here are a few things we’d add to our end-of-life plan for Mexico. What’s on your list? What are you working on now that might help you die a more peaceful death?

It’s hard to describe how beneficial this is, and how much fun we’re having.

People often ask, is there hospice in Mexico? The general answer is, not in the way we often think of "hospice" as a place or a structure in the US. In Mexico, people most often hospice at home, and it's family, friends and caregivers who make up the "architecture of hospice."

Below is a link to a beautifully-written article on what forms and supports hospice, via The Conversation Project.

Grief and joy. Becoming and dissolving. Hope and despair. Birth and death. Each carries the other. It’s all here in this human experience. 🧡

If you’re new here, and even if you’re not, welcome! I’d like to congratulate you on being brave enough to gaze directly (or at least in the direction) of end of life, and to contemplate what it means to plan.

I invite you to explore the resources for US immigrants to Mexico at DyingInMexico.com AND wherever you are in the process, or wherever you live, I invite you to join me for 8 weeks of death contemplation, starting January 1st.
