About

Maureen Kures, RN is the CEO of www.RadiantMourning.com. She is on a mission to guide families to decide, document, and discuss their final chapter plans to bring peace for those who live on. Now she facilitates family conversations and leads virtual group workshops to replace drama, trauma, and chaos with calm, ease, and peace.A few highlights from the show:1. Physician Orders for Life-Sustaining Treatment (POLST) is a form for people with life-limiting illnesses who frequently require emergency medical care. https://polst.org/2. DNR or do not resuscitate is an important part of the form. It is only valid in a hospital setting. If you are having surgery, ask your surgeon if a DNR will be reinforced during surgery.3. Full estate planning is important even if you believe that you don't have much to leave behind.4. Anyone can get Advance Directive forms off the internet for free and they can be changed at any time. Typically two witnesses or notary public are required in order for it to be valid.5. Regret is a wasted emotion. Learn from what has happened and grow.Follow and learn more about Maureen at:https://www.facebook.com/radiantmourninghttps://www.linkedin.com/in/maureen-kures-48377126/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz9b2fdIAVwk_AfveOV2khQFree Guide: http://startthetalknow.com/About Me:In 2011, I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma, out of the blue.
