Amanda Bennett: We need a heroic narrative for death
Amanda Bennett and her husband were passionate and full of life all throughout their lives together — and up until the final days, too. Bennett gives a sweet yet powerful talk on why, for the loved ones of the dying, having hope for a happy ending shouldn’t warrant a diagnosis of “denial.“ She calls for a more heroic narrative for death — to match the ones we have in life.
