New beginning
A write up of Tuonen Tupa Death Cafe
By kmarttinen
Every time we meet, the comments are about this being the best meeting ever. Wonder how long this lasts? We discussed in small groups first about what we expected of Death Cafe and what we have gotten from it. Then in general discussion we talked about how serious illness or death in family makes friends disappear, they even change to the other side of the street to avoid meeting... probably because they don't know what to say.
Our Death Cafe has many "regulars" but also new people every time. With this group we decided that we will walk head on towards a person who has had a loss or serious diagnosis. If we don't know what to say, we listen what the other person has to say.
We still had many rhings to talk about for the next time. Until then...
