About A Queer Death - Dain Evans:

As a queer person and an end of life doula, I believe in creating a safe and inclusive space where individuals can openly express their unique identities and experiences. I strive to honor and respect the diverse needs and desires of each person I work with, ensuring that their wishes are heard and respected throughout the process. My role involves offering emotional and spiritual guidance, assisting with practical matters, and providing a comforting presence during this vulnerable time. It is an honor to walk alongside individuals and their loved ones, offering support, advocacy, and a listening ear as they navigate this sacred transition.

What brings you to Death Cafe?

I think that having open, honest, non-judgmental conversations about death and dying is a key part of understanding impermanence and grief. Death Cafés are a great way to have those conversations.

What would you like your legacy to be?

I don't really know what I want my legacy to be. I think my focus right now is how to be okay with whatever comes after life.

Thoughts for sharing:

Every body is in the process of dying, and it's ok. Since we're already on the journey towards death, the best we can do is find peace and contentment with the destination. We don't want to meet a total stranger when we get there.
