(I
FIRST PERSON, FROM LIBBY): Lynn Barton has been my psychotherapist since 1986. In times of trouble over the years, I have sought and found wise counsel from her. You could say I trust Lynn with my life. In 2012, during our last sessions, I told Lynn about my mama dying in 2006, in Alive Hospice. It seemed to me that, if you don’t get to die at home, Alive Hospice is the next best place to be. And Lynn said, “Alive Hospice began with my husband. On our dining room table.” Now that was news to me. But I wasn’t surprised to learn that I can trust Lynn with my death also. Lynn’s husband, David Barton, N
W
is a psychiatrist. And Alive Hospice was indeed his brainchild. It’s a fascinating story, that begins in the 70s, when a group of people came together in the Barton’s home, to discuss ways they could improve the care of people with terminal illness. They were first-timers, really, and their meetings were the seeds of a grassroots movement from which Alive Hospice grew. Join us at Potluck, when Lynn and David will tell us the history of Alive Hospice. We’ll have lunch at 11:30, and Lynn and David will begin about noon. The Center provides the main course. Please bring a side dish. Note: Potluck will come a week early this month, on Wed., Nov. 14.
