Share a conversation with Mary Alice Jackson—Board Certified Elder Law Attorneywho served on the Legislative End Of Life Task Force in 1999, which resulted in the
last significant change in Florida law regarding the end of life treatment and palliative care.
No one wants to contemplate illness or a life-threatening event. However, life is impermanent and the
most common error people make is failing to make known their wishes and philosophy about medical
treatment and care.

If you can’t speak for yourself: Who will speak for you and what will they say? How will they know your wishes? Come, listen and consider your own situation as Pines tackles the tough issues of end of life treatment and putting muscle into your legal documents. Plus time for your questions to be answered.
